you are correct. When all government and most businesses say press 1 for English, 2 for Spanish, they completely remove any incentive to immerse in the American culture. Same goes for written information and documents from the government and business.
Go to France and see if they have have the same system. I guarantee they won’t for English but might for Arabic.

I’ve often seen “the Irish aren’t forced to choose” thrown into the immigration argument. Really? A web search of "push one ( or any other number ) for Gaelic” turns up almost nothing.

A few years ago, my doctor's new phone system required that ... told her how freakin' insulting it was.
She actually dropped the "press 1 for English" part.
