As a consumer, describe your benefits regarding the availability of a wide range of low-cost, high-quality goods and services which are produced in other countries, such as, cell phones and flat-screen televisions.

As a voter, describe your concerns regarding international trade, such as the politics of free trade versus protection. Do you think tariffs or quotas should be imposed on imported goods to provide U.S. producers an “even playing field”? Before you advocate for tariffs and quotas think how other countries will retaliate.

Finally, as an employee, describe your concerns regarding the loss of U.S. jobs, since international trade spurs job offshoring, and it also provides freer access to U.S. markets by foreign producers.
