Because you live in a nation that was founded on being a melting pot, a place where people of diverse ethnic backgrounds could settle on common ground. Sometimes, you have to endure a few extra seconds of time to embrace the cultures and diversity that make the United States different than any other nation.
and is there a "press 3 for Swedish", "press 4 for Taiwaneze", press 5 for Finnish", etc. etc.??? I think not.....yet they are all part of the melting pot too.
I agree. If I ever go to a foreign country just to visit, I would at least learn enough of the language to get me fed, housed, and to the embassy if necessary. I would never move somewhere if I couldn't speak the language and I for absolute certain, would not expect the rest of the country to learn english for me. Even though it is all about me.
Our nation was founded on an open principal of diversity. I disagree with the rest of your comments but feel no need to argue the point further at this point. That's all I have to say about it.

While living in South Florida I had to learn to speak Spanish to shop at Walmart and the grocery store. It's sad. I know.
