We should not allow any other language or signs or whatever in anything but english. My grandparents were immigrants, who spoke no english when they came to he US in the late 1800's, they learned english and forced their 8 children to do the same. English was produly spoken at home by the old folks for their entire lives. So why have we incurred the costs of Bi Lingual everything here, you won't see that in Europe by the by.
While I agree wholeheartedly with you, I look at it this way. As long as rich white men are in charge then English will be our language. As long as my kids speak-a-da-english and more and more of other peoples kids speak Spanish, or ebonics, or whatever, the rich white men in charge will hire my kids to work for them!
