40 billion isn't all that much at the national level.. America owes a lot more than that to other countries.

Can you provide a link?
Because- I think what you might be talking about is the peso bailout of 95 in which case- it's Mexico that owes America 40 billion. We were just stupid enough to give it to them.
we guaranteed 40 billion dollars worth of loans to save Mexico's *** because their peso collapsed.
You can thank the Clinton admin for that- who knows if it has been repaid yet.
Mexico has a history of defaulting on it's loans going back since the the country's conception.

If that's so, America and Mexico need to call the debt even considering all of the money the American taxpayers have spent on healthcare and education to illegal people.

Seems we can not pay anyone we owe .
Its like a poor man with a gun desperate to find money and barrowing from everyone and when that ends he will need to rob a bank or find a huge oil reserve to take over and sell to make some money .

We should send them a bill for all the services that their citizens receive for free there. That should even out the debt, and the some.
