A 23-year-old computer programmer presents to your office for evaluation of numbness in his fingers. Initially, he noticed that the numbness gradually worsened during the day, but it is now present upon awakening. On physical examination, his thenar eminence is atrophic, and you localize the numbness to the thumb, second finger, and part of the third finger on the dorsal surface.

Madagascar is a very poor island nation in Africa, but the USA is its second biggest trade partner. Madagascar produces vanilla, cloves, and nickel. Why might economists argue that it makes sense to engage in free trade with Madagascar? Also discuss how citizens in Madagascar might benefit from this. Explain fully.  You will be judged on the depth, accuracy, and persuasiveness of your explanation. You must connect to class content and use examples to illustrate, even if fictional ones.  *This is a bit open-ended and you need to put some structure in place. **Expected length is about 500 words. I don’t think you can do a good job with an essay that is much shorter.  Do not restate the question, as these words will not contribute to length. Do not worry about formal intro and conclusions…focus on the body of an essay.  ***Note that a few sentences is not sufficient to answer this question and will not earn you an acceptable score. ****Be detailed and be thorough. Offer examples to illustrate your points.  *****Content is the most important contributor to your grade. But writing quality counts too. I do not expect perfection from a timed essay. But I do expect that your work is proofread and major grammar errors and spelling errors are addressed.  SPEND A FEW MINUTES EDITING YOUR WORK BEFORE SUBMITTING.
