Answer:This is an example of a(n) political argument for government intervention.

Explanation:

Countries sometimes will want to protect particular industries that they consider crucial for national security

Most crucially defense related industries are the most industries that the people will fight for such as aerospace, advanced electronics and semiconductors.

Eventhough these arguments are no longer common but they still exist.
