Answer:
a. Unfair competition argument
Explanation:
With regards to decision about restriction on imported steel rods : Domestic producers, lobbyists state that they should levy trade restrictions, as producers in other countries receive subsidies to export steel rods and that domestic suppliers can't compete in the international marketplace.
The above statement highlights the aspect of 'Unfair Trade Competition'. Such because other countries giving subsidies to their steel rod producers decrease market price of steel rods. This makes their (other countries) steel rods cheaper & make them gain competitive advantage in both their domestic & global markets. So, US steel rods lose their competitiveness in both their domestic market (if cheaper imports enter their market) & in other countries (having cheaper subsidised steel rods).
