Re: PT 76 LR1 Q7
Premise states we have a service economy, in which less of the workforce is employed for manufacturing. The conclusion states that this is why we do less international trade. Since Explain questions tend to ask us to make two disparate pieces of information compatible, the Blueprint method emphasizes being clear on exactly what those two are. Here, we have to find a piece of information that links having a service economy/less manufacturing jobs with less international trade.AfrocentricAsian wrote:I don't get it at all.

C states "Because services are usually delivered in person, markets for services tend to be local." This would explain why developing a service economy has decreased our international trade - services tend to have local markets, limiting our options abroad.
E states that "Some services can be procured less expensively from providers in other countries than from providers in the economist's country. This might seem tempting, but it could actually make the situation worse. If services could be procured cheaply abroad, wouldn't a service economy be a potential boon for international trade?
