so, what do you guys think? should immigrants have to pay for English lessons to adapt to society, or should it be payed by the government (in other words, YOU through taxes)...........



...........i think it's a good question, with tricky answers.
Well, there is an English fluency test that has to be passed in order to become a citizen, so that is a no-brainer.

A nation is defined by its borders, language, and culture. If we lose that, we are not a nation at all.
I know those are hard concepts for a lot of people to digest, but contrary to the self-sabatoging efforts of public education to convince our generation otherwise, it is true.

Sorry guys.
