A congresswoman from a state with several ball-bearing factories argues that the government should impose a tariff on ball bearings because they are a necessary input into the production of various weapons. Free trade, she contends, would make the United States overly dependent on foreign countries for the supply of ball bearings and thus, in case of war, unable to make enough weapons to defend itself.
Which of the following justifications is the congresswoman using to argue for the trade restriction on ball bearings?
A. Jobs argument
B. Unfair-competition argument
C. Using-protection-as-a-bargaining-ch ip argument
D. National-security argument
E. Infant-industry argument
