Do you think the United States will continue to be the world's most influential power? In one or two
paragraphs, explain why or why not.

No, I do not think the United States will continue to be the world's most influential power. There is a lack of a social safety net and corporations are able to circumvent laws and pay workers dismal wages by treating them as only temporary.

Explanation:

I think the United States has become imbalanced as a society and there are deep social divides in the country in terms of economic wellbeing and race for example that will be difficult to overcome in the decades to come. Other societies in Europe for example have more of a social safety net to help protect workers and employees from exploitation by corporations and entrepreneurs and start-ups, but in the United States, many companies successfully avoid paying benefits and providing stability by treating workers as freelancers and contractors. This will lead to economic instability for the general population and the new younger generations entering the market who lack the assets and stability that their grandparents' generation enjoyed. We are not the model society for others to follow anymore.  

political parties perform an important task in government. they bring people together to achieve control of the government, develop policies favorable to their interests or the groups that support them, and organize and persuade voters to elect their candidates to office.
