Supporters of protectionism would argue that free trade adversely affects workers.

Answer: Workers.

Protectionism is an economic practice that attempts to limit the import of foreign goods through tariffs, quotas, and other government regulations.

Supporters of protectionism argue that workers in particular benefit from these policies. They argue that it allows companies to hire locally, creating more jobs. It also protects industries from foreign competition and allows new companies to develop their own competitive advantage, which would also result in more stability and jobs for workers.
