disenfranchised eh?

This nation is a country of immigrants. So it is natural that we have recent immigrant that do not know how to speak english. And as a compassionate society, we do our best to accomodate these non-english speaker by providing them interpreters, having signage in different languages and having TV/radio shows in different languages. And the law does not require that they learn english. But are we doing them a favor by accomodating their needs and making them complacent? These people do not bother to learn english because they know they can get by without it. They have been here in this country for years and still can not speak english. And they use this excuse as being disenfranchise for their failures and woes. They could not get a good job cause they do not speak english. They did not get the best care at the hospital cause the nurses could not understand them. They got a ticket unfairly because they could not explain to the police properly what happended. Well whose fucking fault is it? Seriously, I almost feel they deserve what they get. For I know that those who really want to live a better life here will learn english somehow. If there is a will, there is a way. Those who are complacent, then they can stay poor and disenfranchised.
