    Option D US consumers lose more from tariffs than U. S. producers gain

    Explanation:

    The reason is that the US has imposed tariffs on the import of goods to overcome the comparative advantage of the other countries. So by imposing tariffs the US producer's products become inexpensive and protects them from the foreign countries with comparative advantage in similar products. This means the US consumer is buying expensive products and don't motivates the US producer to invest in efficiency and that the size of the industry may be at the growth stage or the producer's size is very small which means it can not compete with the competitors in the international market. So as a result the US consumer suffer more because they pay higher payments and are forced to buy expensive American products which is less in value to the consumer than the value it generates to the producers.
