The US used to be called a 'melting pot' - immigrants came to this country determined to become Americans, and they worked on learning the language and customs of this country.

That was a primary strength of this country. Since many immigrants now come here to make money and bring their culture and language along with them, the unity of the country is falling apart. This is one of the reasons the US is failing.

Now there are areas of the country where someone who only knows english can't communicate with the local population.
