Debate: Free global trade is best for the US economy.

1. Define what the above statement means i.e. what is free global trade?

2. Decide whether you are for or against this statement, and make at least two compelling arguments for your side of the debate. Be sure to refer to the international trade theories in this chapter. Ensure your arguments are supported by facts and data. Don't forget to list your sources. (Take a look at the text, videos and links and the BUS 335 Library Guide in Tools & Help on the Content page.)

3. To be most persuasive, it is always good to consider the points the other side will make. List the points you expect them to make, and how you would overcome these arguments. Again, I encourage you to use facts & data. Remember, though, emotion is very persuasive.
