[QUOTE="UPS Lifer, post: 999784, member: 9789"] Making English the official language for America is surfacing again. I just get why people would immigrate to a country and not try to LEARN the language of the people who live in that country. We continue to coddle immigrants who do not speak English and fail to take the opportunity to learn the language. What is really frustrating to me, is to offer a voting ballot in any language other than English (if you are voting in America). Common Sense? If you get a ballot - you must be a citizen. If you are a citizen, shouldn't you know how to read and write the language of the country you are voting in? How can you ever assimilate into the socio-economic and cultural mainstream?? I honestly don't get it! [/QUOTE]
