I need to write an essay on unrestricted international trade, and whether I am for or against it. I'm supposed to choose a platform on which to write to write about such as; comparative advantage, gains from trade, and trade restrictions. Then I have have to support my position with three specific reasons. I'm a bit confused, I would appreciate any ideas or suggestions as to how to go about this. I'm not very familiar with international trade, and I would appreciate any information on the subject. Thank you.

In the olden days, we had to take pens and notebooks and stacks of blank note cards, go to the local public library, and dig through tons of reference books. Now all you have to do is sit in front of your computer in your jammies with a glass milk and some brownies and Google to your heart's content. And you still ask how to do this.
