We report. You decide.
Via Samawel:
The US, I think, should be multilingual when it comes to official languages. As national languages are concerned, all the Amerindian languages should be official in their parts of the nation, meanwhile as a unifying language, both English and Spanish should be official.
Language Log's Bill Poser was also not pleased:
The third argument, believe it or not, is that making English official will have a unifying effect! That's rich. Depriving Spanish-speakers in the Southwest and Puerto Rico and American Indians and Eskimos of services in their own languages is obviously a great way to make them feel wanted.
