I think it's a great idea. If one elects to live and work in the United States, at least an attempt to become proficient in the Englishlanguage should be a condition of employment.

I visited a McDonald's in Cicero, IL last month, and literally was unable to order because NONE of the staff spoke English. That's ridiculous!

Answer 1

Yes.

Answer 2

they should and if we had any sense at all we would wake up and make English the official language of the USA and get rid of the dial one for English 2 for Spanish  

Answer 3

It's up to the business. The LPGA? Yeah, I'm going to buy some women golfers...

McCain certainly agrees with you! He voted to make English the official language of the US.

Read about it at his official website: http://www.johnmccain.com/espanol/

You didn't "get it" did you? You DID notice I linked to his Spanish language site?

Answer 4

If they choose to.

Most will not.
