The United States of America is important to the world as it is its largest economy and military power. Having the third largest population of 325 million, the United States economy accounts for a quarter of the global wealth a figure that stood at $17.97 trillion in 2015. The United States of America is a superpower because of its huge economy, powerful military and key role in international institutions such as NATO and the United nations. The United States should be more involved in the world as its involvement has more positive outcomes than negative ones. The re-emergence of Russia and the rise in power of China will continue to challenge the United States global dominance. This essay delves into why the United States should be more involved in the world.<\/p>\n
The United States should continue being involved in the world as it opens up new opportunities and markets for growth. Compared to other developed countries, the United States records high incomes and is home to millions of entrepreneurs that have developed some of the world’s most sought-after products like Facebook. According to a survey by Pew Research, in 2013, 66% of the participants said the United States’ involvement in the world is a good thing (Cook & Ehrlich, 2018). The majority of Democrats, Republicans, and independents, as well as significant majorities across the income and education categories have positive reviews pertaining to the US involvement in global economies. Markets and opportunities tend to expand when companies that have been birthed in the US expand to other continents across the world. For instance, companies such as Apple, and Microsoft, can expand to other contents and expand clientele. Businesses such as Target, Walmart, and CostCo get opportunities to open new branches in European countries, which helps boost the economies. Additionally, being involved in world affairs attracts both high-skilled and low-skilled workers from other countries. The 2013 Pew Research survey found that high-skilled workers are helpful in boosting the economy. Similarly, an increased number of low-skilled workers from neighboring countries is also beneficial for the world economy. Because it has a strong economy, the United States gives international financial aid plenty, with some foundations and agencies donating up to billions of dollars each year. <\/p>\n
`Another reason the United States should be more involved in the world has to do with the fact that its cultural influence runs deep. The United States culture extends across the world through the English language. More than two billion people in the world speak the English language today (Ehrlich, Cook, & Yin, 2018). The majority of these English speakers have adopted the Americanised English version. United States films, music, video games, TV programmes have a huge domestic market of over 300 million customers alone in the US, not forgetting the influence the get in other sectors of the world. Notably, the United States tends to have a cultural and social impact on its immediate neighbours, including Canada, Mexico, and North America as a whole.<\/p>\n
In closing, the United States of America remains to be the greatest country of all time. Owing to its strong economy and powerful military, the United States is deemed a superpower. The United States should be more involved in the world as its involvement in global matters opens doors for new markets and opportunities. Also, through the influence of the English language, the US involvement in global matters tends to boost the culture of other people.<\/p>\n
