I feel our country is losing our culture as a result of our country trying to 'overaccomodate' the large Spanish speaking population here. PLEASE do not get me wrong here, our country is entirely made up of immigrants and Thank God for that! What I see happening though, is that our Immigrants (legal or illegal) are not being 'expected' to assimilate into our environment, but we are expected to assimilate into theirs. We do not do this for Algeria, or Pakistan or even Italy. We only do this for PRIMARILY people from Mexico. The USA has a culture of it's own, language of it's own and 'it's own way of doing things'. And now, we are being expected to 'change his' in order to be politically correct? Is French going to be option 3 for our Tri-Lingual specialists, since Quebec is on our border also?
My real question here is, does anyone else feel we are 'losing' our way of doing things as a country, versus our desire to accomodate others? What do you think?
