d

Answer to Question 2

It is argued that tariffs are a means of preventing a nation from becoming too dependent on foreign suppliers of goods vital to national security. The national security argument is usually not valid. If a nation's own resources are depletable, tariff-imposed reliance on domestic supplies will hasten depletion of domestic reserves, making the country even more dependent on imports in the future.
