This is tough to answer in 3-5 sentences, and tends to also be a heavy identifier of your possible political leanings. You'll have to apologize if some of mine leak out in the response, but this is a question we debate hotly more frequently than every 4 years.
In general, international trade can help increase the GDP and overall profits for US-based corporations. However, if all we do is export, and we don't import, other countries don't look favorably upon that and may heavily tax our goods to counter this.
I believe we do need to be thoughtful about the amounts and kinds of international trade that we engage in. For example, farming is always a hotly debated issue for international trade, in part because farmers in other countries with a dramatically lower cost of living OR farmers in countries with a favorable currency rate (exchange from their currency to our dollars gives them an advantage) can undercut our farmers here in the US, many of whom are already struggling.
There are also those who are worried that when we import produce from countries that have not outlawed pesticides we know are carcinogenic, for instance, this creates not only a disadvantage for US farmers, but also for consumers who may be concerned about health issues.
As another example of this, many countries outlawed import of US beef during the Mad Cow Epidemic. We in turn also placed bans on importing beef from the UK.
These are examples of why it's important to be thoughtful about trade, but there are certainly many others, including decline in production jobs within the US that have left cities like Detroit a ghost town (this was formerly the hub of our automotive industry production).

There is some information missing and I looked up it. If the numbers are not exactly the same, you adjust them to your question.
- The cash account for Pala Medical Co. at June 30, 20Y1, indicated a balance of $166,436.
- The bank collected $26,500 on a $25,000 note, including interest of $1,500.
- A check for $4,000 returned with the statement had been incorrectly recorded by Pala Medical Co. as $400. The check was for the payment of an obligation to Skyline Supply Co. for a purchase on account.
-

Answer:
June 30, 20Y1
Dr Cash 26,500
Cr Notes receivable 25,000
Cr Interest revenue 1,500
Dr Cash 3,600
Cr Accounts receivable 3,600
Dr Bank fees expense 55
Cr Cash 55
If a balance sheet were prepared for Pala Medical Co. on June 30, 20Y1, what amount should be reported as cash?
$166,436 + $26,500 + $3,600 - $55 = $196,481
Answer:
The total fixed costs must be:
$36,000.
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Contribution margin ratio for the new product = 0.2
Target operating income = $60,000
Targeted sales volume in dollars = $480,000
Fixed costs = targeted sales volume in dollars multiplied by contribution margin ratio, minus target operating income
Fixed costs = ($480,000 * 0.2) - $60,000 = $36,000
b) The focus should be on the break-even formula for dollar sales with a target profit. When the formula is reversed, the fixed costs can be calculated as shown above.
We can say the price level has risen in the economy from 2019 to 2020.
In the U.S., growth is expected to slow to 2% in 2020 from 2.3% in 2019 and fall further to 1.7% in 2021 (2020 growth compared to October WEO 0.1 percentage point decrease).
Real GDP fell by 3.5% in 2020 (from the 2019 annual level to the 2020 annual level) compared to a 2.2% increase in 2019 (Table 1).
The outbreak led to a sharp contraction in the economy in March 2020, resulting in real GDP contracting by 5.1% annualized in the first quarter and 31.2% in the second quarter.
