This is an example of the PC ruination of our country - I am still waiting for somebody to tell me WHY I should have to chose between English and Espanol when I insert my ATM card - how come English is not the default choice?? I am talking about an area where less than 5% of the population is Hispanic; I assume this is B of A's "diversity" work, just like their commercials.

Actually there is a reason for the Spanish language choice on most ATM's today. Back in the early 1990's (I worked for Bank of America back then)there was a study that was produced forecasting the demographics of the nationalities in the U.S. I don't remember the exact details but sometime after the year 2000, the Hispanic population in the U.S. was forecast to reach 25% of the U.S. Population. It was further noted that the Hispanic population in the U.S. would continue to increase faster than any other nationality, since most are anti abortion and anti birth control (devout Catholics).
