In the early 1900's , a company often provided a company town, a place where the worker could live in the near working location ( usually like a mining location)

The workers usually were lured by the promise of high wage.

But here's the thing, in company town, a source of living usually can only obtained in a company store, and the cost is really high.

So instead of getting a high wage, the workers trapped in huge debt to the company, creating some sort of slavery that they have to work to pay off their debt to the company

Techincally, the company could easily bring those workers to the court ( even though is very cruel, they obtain the debt in a 'legal' way), so basically workers cant do a thing

La respuesta correcta para esta pregunta  es la siguiente.

El propósito de los aranceles consiste en:

"proteger los sectores productivos nacionales contra la competencia de productos producidos a precios inferiores a los internos."

Cuando estamos hablando sobre temas de comercio exterior, los países deciden imponer tarifas especiales o aranceles a los productos del extranjero como una medida para proteger los sectores productivos nacionales contra la competencia de productos producidos a precios inferiores a los internos.

Estos impuestos llamados aranceles buscan que los consumidores del país prefieran comprar productos nacionales en lugar de lo extranjeros. Primero, porque tratan de favorecer a la industria nacional por encima de la industria extranjera. Y luego, con los aranceles, os productos extranjeros se venden a precios más caros, aunque la gente luego los paga porque considera que son de mejor calidad.

Hoy en día, los países han decidido formar bloques comerciales para eliminar esos aranceles y poder exportar/importar libremente. Tal es el caso de la Unión Europea o el TLCAN, el Tratado de Libre Comercio de América del Norte, firmado por los Estados Unidos, México y Canadá.

Economically speaking, which food product would be a substitute good" for a beef steak?
Natasha_Volkova [10]

The answer would be many choices like, Salmon, Turkey, Tofu, etc.

Economically speaking, the above mentioned alternatives are the best substitutes for a beef steak.

Explanation:

Substitute is something which can be used in place of another thing. So if some desired thing is not available or is beyond our capacity, then we move towards the substitutes to fulfill our needs of that product.

When economically speaking, taking a substitute is to save some money actually. So if we talk about substituting the beef stake due to increased price of beef in the last few months from 2.31 dollars to 3.86 dollars a pound, then Canned Salmon or Turkey is a best alternative or substitute for beef. They are equally healthy, nutritious, and tasty, and are much lesser in price than Beef.
