Bertrand is an avid supporter of protectionism. his primary platform is the idea that the united states imports too many foreign goods. he dislikes that many of his clothes are made in china instead of the u. s. because clothing is a basic need, even for babies. he would prefer that the united states drill in the arctic national wildlife refuge (anwr) instead of importing oil from kuwait because oil powers our military\'s tanks and planes. which argument for protectionism is bertrand using?

-the national security argument

The correct answer is letter "A": The National Security Argument.

This point of view proposes that self-sufficiency is the only means of progress for a nation. Exceptional cases such as wars are usually cited with this theory to point out that under those circumstances relying on another country -for fuel, for instance- could represent a big drawback.
