Then, when every Spanish speaker learns English, "true Americans" will bitch and moan about those bilingual Mexicans getting a job over their unilingual ass. Be careful what you wish for.

:lol:

Good for them! Get a legal job = paying back into the system with tax revenue and having company health insurance? No more drag on the health system by going to the hospital ER's in the middle of the night for free medical care. See Matty, every doctor here throws you out of their office if no health care insurance. Hospitals can't do it.
 
This is nothing new in America. There have been plenty of immigrants in this country throughout its existence that have not spoken English.

People need to read books and stop watching TV.

Agreed! But those immigrants weren't catered to by everything in their daily life being incorporated into their language. No incentive to learn English then.
 
MrMonkey, I just scrolled up and read post #7. So you left out the apostrophe on purpose? Maybe you are trying to be more individualistic...?

On a more serious note, do you really refer to speaking/listening skills alone and not to writing/reading? So as long as an immigrant can call Dominos and order a pizza you are happy, but he/she should not be able to fill out a job application or write a letter of interest? I am looking forward to your reply and am curious now.
