Jobs argument justifications is the pundit using to argue for the trade restriction on steel rods

Explanation:

A main argument often put forward to curb trade would be that trade decreases the amount of jobs domestically available.

The point about maintaining jobs is often put forward by employers to protect union jobs. Nevertheless, unions are undermining the market by prohibiting businesses from receiving their products at lower prices, causing them to increase prices. Moreover, businesses are often discouraged from using automation or robotics to retain jobs, which is ironic because automation and robotics improve the productivity of workers, thereby encouraging companies to pay employee salaries and benefits.
