Range of Issues in Mexico

and America
Enrique Pena Nieto:Hi, President Obama! I am currently the leader of Mexico and we
are having multiple problems with the country of Mexico. To begin with, a major problem
that is occurring in Mexico is the economy.
President Barack Obama: Hi, Enrique Pena Nieto! What is wrong with the economy in
your country? Tell me some information that is occurring with it and lets see what we
can do about it.
Enrique Pena Nieto: Even though Mexico is the 13th largest economy in the world,
there is a nominal gross domestic product that is topping $1 trillion in past and recent
years. Also, almost half of the population is below poverty line which isnt so good to be
proud about. Also, there is 18% in dire poverty which is a pretty good amount.
President Barack Obama: That is not very good to hear because the economy is an
important part of a country. Having a bad economy is not good because then the people
living in the country wont have a good lifestyle and it will eventually go downhill. Is there
anything that is trying to improve this?
Enrique Pena Nieto: Yes there is! Well, oil is a great producer and exporter. This oil
helps provide a great portion of government revenue which helps us improve the
economy and make it a better place to live. Is there any problems that you are having in
your country President Barack Obama?
President Barack Obama: Yes, a big issue that is occurring in the United States is the
idea of immigration. Each year the percent and amount keeps on increasing and this is
starting become a problem since there is so much people. Apparently, 40.8 million
Mexican born people live in the United States and this makes it the largest immigration
group in the country. But everyone that moves to the USA isnt considered a US citizen
and this causes problems because nearly 46% of immigrants were naturalized as U.S.
citizens. Different kinds of races come to live in this country but there is nothing that we
can do about it if they are now considered a U.S. citizen.

Enrique Pena Nieto: I am sorry to hear that because there is nothing that you can really
do about it because a lot of people want to live in your country since everyone knows
that the U.S. is a great area to live. But the fact of having nearly 41 million immigrants
living in your country to kind of scary to think about because that is a lot of people that
decided to leave their country and move to yours. It is sad to think about because it
keeps on increasing as you had said and this makes it show that the population will
keep on increasing.
President Barack Obama: But as you can tell, 46% which is considered to be 18.9
million people are immigrants coming from the race of hispanics and latino. This shows
that these people probably dont live a great life or they dont get enough money which
shows that they want to move to a better environment and be able to go from there. Is
there any other issues that are occurring in Mexico that is a problem for you?
Enrique Pena Nieto: Another problem that is occurring in Mexico is the population
growth rate which shows that there is a lot of people living in this area. The population
here keeps on increasing and it is soon going to have more people than Japan. The
population in Mexico is currently 123.8 million people and 50.7% are females while
49.3% are males. There is about 2,768 births a day which shows that the population
keeps on growing and growing. Right now Mexico is the 11th most populous nations in
the world and because of this it is the highest population for a Spanish speaking nation.
Also, there is about 63 people per square kilometer and Mexico takes up 1,972,550
square kilometers of area. Since a lot of people live in Mexico it is hard for the country
because when the population keeps on increasing then there wont be a lot of area for
everyone to live.
President Barack Obama: This is a major issue because having 2,768 births a day just
shows that it will eventually be a problem for the country in the future. Having a lot of
people living in your country shows that something bad will happen because there will
eventually not be enough space for everyone in the long run.
Enrique Pena Nieto: I totally agree with you because the population keeps on increasing
and there is nothing we can really do about it. But there is about 250.7 babies born in
one hour, but every 56.53 seconds someone dies which makes it 63.7 people in Mexico
dying every hour. From years past till now the population has went up a lot because in
1950 the growth rate was 4.6% while in 1970 it was 7.2%. This shows that every
country isnt perfect and that there is nothing you can really do about the population. Is
there anymore issues or problems going on in the USA?

President Barack Obama: Yes, there certainly is such as the obesity and overweight
problems that are occurring for a good amount of people in this country. Apparently, the
obesity rate has more than doubled from kids to adults ever since the 1970s. This is a
major problem for the Americans because it is a health problem for a lot of us and we
need to do something about it. For adults, more than of them are overweight and
people have said that the heaviest Americans have become more heavier than years
past. While for the children in the United States, about a quarter of ages between 2 and
5 and one third of school age children are overweight. The overweight and obesity rates
are considered to be higher and tend to increase throughout the years.
Enrique Pena Nieto: This is not good to hear because having a good amount of people
being overweight can lead to problems with health which can lead to dying young.
People having bad health can be a bad thing because it could lead down to your kids
and it can cause them to also be unhealthy. Maybe the United States should cut out
fastfood places because there is a lot of problems with that since there is a lot of fat in
the cheap foods.
President Barack Obama: To go along with that, Americans eat 500-800 calories more
a day which shows that this leads to overweight in no time. This isnt healthy because
having this much more calories a day can lead to gaining a pound in half a week.
People just tend to buy more food because there is food ads everywhere and not
enough exercise ads in this country. People just eat for social, cultural, and emotional
reasons not just for the reason of being hungry.
Enrique Pena Nieto: I am so sad that your country is having problems along with my
country and these issues need to be stopped eventually. This can be hard to do but it
will hopefully be done and over with in the long run. It was nice talking to you and
hopefully your country does great in the future.
President Barack Obama: It was nice talking to you and I hope good things happen to
your country soon because it deserves it!
