It is not my responsibility to pay for an American citizen who does not learn English.

And Daniel, you should see what happens in the NYC voting booth. They have people who can translate into many different languages, though sometimes I wonder of those Chinese translators can really speak English.

I thought that the idea behind getting citizenship and voting rights was to know enough English to enter the voting booth (we don't even have those anymore) to mark the correct box and put it downside through a machine. Uggghhhh ! I get looney when I go into the bank, Home Depot, NYC subway and voting place where I can not find English but one of the other languages I have begun to learn in my later years. Alas, I did not start to learn any Chinese dialects or Tagalog yet.
