Most of the illegal immigrants (read Mexicans) don't want to learn English at all.

Where do you get 'most...don't want to learn English?' Do you have a citation, or is this just your 'observation?'

Have you lived in any of the border counties lately or cities of extremely high immigration? You won't hear much English spoken anymore ---especially in every housing project around here it's not spoken at all.

It's called the undeniable truth that one would naturally gather if one was well-read on the subject and had an open mind.

I don't think the problem is that they don't want to to learn English, the problem is that they don't have to. In some cities (like Miami) one can get by without knowing a word of English.

My solution? (I knew you'd ask), is to require the use of English in all government and commercial transactions and to abolish non-English language media. English is the glue that can hold our nation together.
