The author concludes that the North American Free Trade Agreement is misnamed. As evidence, the author points to the principles outlined by Adam Smith, under which any obstacle placed in the way of free movement of goods, investment, or labor defeats free trade. Applying these principles to NAFTA, the author observes that, since under the agreement workers would be restricted by national boundaries, the NAFTA would not result in truly free trade.

The author criticizes the North American Free Trade Agreement as being misnamed because of the restrictions the agreement would place on workers. He does this by citing to the principles articulated by the economist Adam Smith.

The author does not rule out any alternatives. The author doesn't rule out other principles or definitions of free trade.

The author concludes that the North American Free Trade Agreement is misnamed, but the author himself does not use the term “free trade” in two different senses.

The author does not cite a nonrepresentative instance. The author’s argument is restricted specifically to the North American Free Trade Agreement. In addition, the author cites to the principles articulated by Adam Smith. We have no reason to think these principles are unrepresentative of the way other economists define free trade.

The authority is the economist Adam Smith. He is a relevant authority because he is the economist who first articulated the principles of free trade. The phrase \"appealing to\" means \"relying on\" or \"citing to\" in this context.

The author does not respond to a different issue. The issue is the misnaming of the North American Free Trade Agreement and the author never discusses another issue.
