Abuot Alfredo Quinones-Hinojosa

His name is Alfredo Quinones-Hinojosa , he from Mexico.
He was a former illegal immigrant. Twenty years ago, he came from Mexico into the United States and became a migrant farmworker. But now, he is neurosourgeon and professor at Johns Hopkins Universty, and a researcher who is looking foe a breakthrough in the treatment of brain cancer.
His father could no longer keep food on the table for the family. He became a teacher by the time he was18, but he was unable to provide for his family. And he lived in the fields in a broken-dowm camper. When his cousin told him he would be a farmworker for the rest of his life, he realized it was time to move on.
He studies English at a community collage in california. He went on to Harvard Medical school, where he delivered the commencement speech.

I think he was great person and he has great abilities. His life through felt hope.

'Subprime mortgages'.

subprime means in some way below prime, not at the top level. From around 2005, the word subprime started to feature with increasing frequency in the media. Subprime mortgages is easy credit. The banks and building societies of lending money to people with lower incomes or dubious credit ratings. The meaning of the word reversed and the ‘subprime’ part came to describe the borrowers themselves. Subprime mortgages are now firmly established as one of the ‘bad guys’ in the story of the credit crunch, and it seems that subprime will from now on always be associated with collapsing banks and tumbling stock markets.

I saw documentary of Subprime mortgages, so I knew many American people hed debt.
It’s serious a problem. This the became problem of the world because American is influence . So I thought the problem that must be solved as soon as possible. This problem is the wrong idea. I don't know very well, but I hope they will have solution one's wishful thinkig.
