The world common language today is English.
Its spoken in more countries then any other language.
Most people in this country does speak English.
All government business on both state and federal is conducted in English.

If immigrants comes here legal or illegal they should learn the language.
how do you expect to participate in life without communications?
It severely limits your opportunities when you dont speak English.

Illegals does not get fee health care. They might steal the service by using the ER and not pay for it. But its not free.

I dont blame the illegals for coming. Rest assure I would be a wetback if I could not put food on the table for my family. Most of them that comes works their ass off for very little and lives like shit just to support their families back home. I have more respect for them than the American deadbeats living off welfare for most of their life.

I do blame us for not securing borders and making this a huge political tool.

Allowing people not to learn the language is a huge mistake. Having options to press 2 for Spanish and find everything in Spanish will not make people try. The lack of communications drives people a part and makes it more difficult then it needs to be.

And for what its worth - neither English or Spanish was the first language spoken by the first settlers. Columbus was just a show off - the vikings had already been here and done that by the time he showed up
