Re: Why is the USA bankrupt??
its not just him. Those in congress that have been there more than 2 years need to go too. They have had YEARs to get this right and haven't gotten it done.
Buy American, the job you save just might be your own.

That's exactly correct E! The pres, any pres cannot do this all alone. He can put the idea to congress and they have to collectively come up with a plan and the majority agree on it. Unfortunately, they all use the medicare, ss & military as an excuse as this is the largest chunk of the budget and they want to buy votes when they "save" them from the cuts...
I know for a fact that we have been educating "non-english" speaking children since I got out of school. One of my friends was offered a teaching job for these kids of immigrant farmers (legal & illegal).
Illegal immigration (specifically Mexican) has been going on since at least 1850. Even today at least 10% of the Mexican population (still living in Mexico) is dependant on funds sent to them from relatives in the US (legal or not). It is their 3rd largest source of income!! That is a mighty big population spending US Funds only in Mexico.... The government created the Border Patrol in 1924 (looks like they have effed that up real good too.... ) Good article below:
Excerpt: Many Mexican immigrants in the United States, even those with ongoing financial struggles, send money home to family members left behind in their home country. At least 10 percent of Mexican families still living in Mexico are dependent upon money that relatives who immigrated to the U.S. send, according to the National Population Council of Mexico. Such family member remittances create the third largest source of income in Mexico, dwarfed only by tourism and petroleum.
