Question 15

• "By moving jobs overseas" would harm the local economy, not help.
• "By importing large amounts of pork" doesn't help the local pork industry's contribution to the economy.
• "By giving away free bacon" is not a valid economic contribution method.
• "By providing jobs for citizens" is a key way industries boost local economies, as employment increases income and spending.
