Many United States companies have, unfortunately, made the search for legal protection from import competition into a major line of work. Since 1980 the United States International Trade Commission (ITC) has received about 280 complaints alleging damage from imports that benefit from subsides by foreign governments. Another 340 charge that foreign companies "dumped" their products in the United States at "less than fair value". Even when no unfair practices are all alleged, the simple claim that an industry has been injured by imports is sufficient ground to seek relief.Contrary to the general impression, this quest for import relief has hurt more companies than it has helped. As corporations begin to function globally, they develop an intricate Web of marketing, production, and research relationships. The complexity of these relationships makes it unlikely that a system of import relief laws will meet the strategic needs of all the units under the same parent company.Internationalization increases the danger that foreign companies will use import relief laws against the very companies the laws were designed to protect. Suppose a United States-owned company establishes an overseas plant to manufacture a product while its competitor makes the same product in the United States. If the competitor can prove injury from the imports-and that the United States company received a subsidy from a foreign government to build its plant abroad-the United States company’s products will be uncompetitive in the United States, since they would be subject to duties.Perhaps the most brazen case occurred when the ITC investigated allegations that Canadian companies were injuring the United States salt industry by dumping rock salt, used to deice roads. The bizarre aspect of the complaint was that a foreign conglomerate with United States operations was crying for help against a United States company with foreign operations. The "United States" company claiming injury was a subsidiary of a Dutch conglomerate, while the "Canadian" companies included a subsidary of a Chicago firm that was the second largest domestic producer of rock salt. It can be inferred from the passage that the minimal basis for a complaint to the International Trade Commission is().

A foreign competitor has received a subsidy from a foreign government
B. A foreign competitor has substantially increased the volume of products shipped to the United States
C. A foreign competitor is selling products in the United States at less than fair value
D. The company requesting import relief has been injured by the sale of imports in the United States

That means I’ll have to get A’s on everything else to get a decent grade.M: That may not be too hard. We’ve already gone through most of the readings that the class is supposed to cover. After next week it will just be review. But then there is the final paper, of course.W: Yes. I was hoping to do well on this test so I could relax when writing my paper, but now it looks like I’ll have to spend more time preparing to write that paper.M: Well, I will too. Hey, I’m kind of hungry. I think I’ll go to get some lunch. Do you feel like joining meW: I’d love to, but I have to go home and study. I’ll call you later.
