Fluency in Spanish a Necessity?

The Deacon has seen more than a few job postings recently that hinted that one shouldn't apply if Spanish skills were lacking. Really? So, the world has returned to an international language system, and chose Spanish? I understand that this country has no official national language, and refuses to establish one to avoid hurting peoples' feelings. I understand that there are millions of Spanish speaking people in this country that need help. Well, the Deacon believes that we should help them the way any other immigrant has been helped who has come to this country - learn the dominant language, communicate in English!

The Deacon believes that one needs to experience pain in order to deal with it, but to require someone in America to learn Spanish to deal with immigrants rather than have immigrants learn English to properly survive is anti-Founders. It is anti-Founders, and anti any immigrant who entered this country before we changed our boxers to panties.
