I read everything I can about the Mexico-America border. I’m slightly obsessed with it- partially due to the first trip I spent in Mexico‚ where we studied border issues in depth. It’s not really fair to speak of Mexico without the context of the United States and/or the border‚ and honestly‚ it’s not really fair to talk about the United States without talking about Mexico.

Such a tax would disincentive imports and skew the market in favor of exporters‚ which would have a negative effect on the current business and growth of Long Beach’s local seaport. The Port of Long Beach is one of the world’s busiest seaports and the second-busiest port in the United States. It supports over a million jobs nationally

The idea that MSF had is that all people have the right to medical care‚ regardless of race‚ religion‚ or nationality while
