Free trade can lead to low pay for workers in a nation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Free trade mainly focuses on the reduction of barriers and all other policies which usually favours specific nations or other industries. In case of free trade, instead of exporting workers to the United States, lower wage countries imported the jobs to their workers.

Under the banner of free immigration lower wage nations truly enjoyed a short term benefit. Fair trade, however, favours the rights of workers and it also improved their working conditions.
