The correct answer is letter "B": many are willing to pay at least a small amount more for imports to ensure good labor standards in other countries.

Explanation:

The National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) is a U. S. nonprofit organization in charge of research and dissemination of unbiased economic related information. According to a survey they conducted on the labor conditions in other countries most people would pay a small amount more of money so the conditions of those who work abroad can be improved.

In a study conducted by the International Trade Union Confederation (ITUC) in 2017, it eas found that Saudi Arabia has absolute denial of basic worker's rights. Similar situations take place in Iraq, Syria, and Yemen.
