That's a perfect example, because there is literally nobody in the US government who could accomplish this as a singular action (aka flipping a switch).
You're talking about flipping the switch like it's easy but the reality is that you need to get some super-majority of politicians to all "flip the switch" at the same time, and THAT is nearly impossible.
You mean like what Bukele did, right? Exactly like I just said, right? What you're referring to is bureaucracy which, by just pressing the switch, you just sidestep. Exactly like Bukele did.
The US political system is designed specifically to prevent unilateral action. Every single politician tries to undermine and get around this constantly, but it's still more or less true. Executive orders are one of the only unilateral actions still available in the US, and even these are often bogged down by the court system.
