Welcome To America Now Speak English

  One of the things that really grinds my gears is that more and more forms and applications and signs in America are in Spanish. I believe that English should be the official language of the United States of America. Why? Well for one reason, printing and creating forms in English would save the United States Government on printing and paper costs if they don't make forms in Spanish. Another thing I believe is that if you want to become a United States citizen, there should be a requirement that you can speak the English language. Not only some words in English, all of it. In addition, writing English fluently should also be a requirement as well.
  Not having English as an official language of the United States, promotes laziness with the immigrants who come here for a better life. I am not bashing immigrants in any way, I'm not racist. I'm just pointing out how some immigrants think that we should adapt to their language. Historically speaking, did you know that all of the signs on the RMS Titanic were in English only? Another interesting and ironic fact I would like to give you is that India has more English speakers than the United States has. Makes you go huh doesn't it? The problem with having job applications in Spanish, is that for the management staff at their potential employer, probably doesn't speak or read Spanish, so they would have to go to a non management employee who speaks Spanish, to translate their job application and or give the applicant their interview if they are selected. See the problem here? If you don't you are probably unaware of this epidemic.
   I think that Congress has to do something about this problem. Did you know that when Barack Obama and Hilary Clinton, and Joe Biden were still US Senators, they voted no on making English the official language? See who you have running our country, the Three Stooges. The real Three Stooges would do a better job in office.
