The spending by states shows they were spending other people's money to hire contractors for state projects or programs. I know Colorado is in trouble financially from over-spending, and the USA for sure.
The 22 million Americans out of work right now corresponds to the amount of illegals employed under the table or with phony IDs. There are several more million collecting various government hand outs that were meant for citizens but given, through corruption, to illegals. The first post shows Americans standing in line for jobs vacated by leaving illegals.
Other posts show the laws broken, and fines for violation. I think a certain amount of Americans could be employed as bounty hunters to collect the fines from violators, and others to drive the buses for deep Eisenhower type deportation, and more on the borders and coasts. This would energize the economy while paying off the debt with the collected fines and taxes paid by legit Americans working again.
The USA certainly doesn't need more people when the max sustainable is between 50 and 200 million depending on standard of living.
