What makes you think that they aren't learning English?
There is some sort of Arab in the first floor news stand with an English primer,book learning from the beginning
He's 20 something and making the effort. Is that acceptable to you?
When you make exceptions like NYC to a change the laws to allow non English speakers to work as a cabbies we've done 2 things

1) Told non English speakers it's OK not to speak English
2) Lowered the profit margin for those who do speak English.


What's next. City employee not having to speak English?
