Haha, I bet the locals are already picturing a bunch of rubber-making zombies invading their town. Antisocial behavior, anyone?

I'm not so sure. What about the poor infrastructure in the local area? That could lead to traffic congestion and other logistical nightmares.

I agree with Carman. The influx of foreign workers could also strain local resources and services, causing further negative externalities.

The correct answer is C) The decision to source workers from abroad. This could potentially lead to issues like cultural clashes, language barriers, and social integration problems in the local community.
