What do you believe the United States priorities should be with regard to its relationships with other countries? With at least
nirvana33 [79]
The us priorities with other countries should be export goods from other countries one because we dont produce our own,we recieve goods from other countries like china,mexico, or other foreign country for exaple china our companys exploit them and therefore investors,companys,should regulate there terms.
illegal immigrants from other countries like south America or the Mediterranean should be treated with ease and give them a policy to stay for several days until they get an approval for political aid if not send them back to where they came from and not just throw them of to a country they dont know or give them prison time,therefore the U.S should treat illegal immigrants like actual human beings.
