Latinos influx into this country is large and constant. It's much cheaper for them to have children here (especially with welfare systems in place) and they greatly outnumber other races when it comes to birthrates.

Is this trend going to slow down or ramp up?

3 years, 6 months, and 9 days.
Good chance we’ll need to learn Chinese before that though.
And besides, English is a racist language anyway. Should be cancelled.

Chinese is a tough language to learn. One of the, if not, the hardest language on Earth to learn.

Why do you ask? Come right out and say it.

Totally. That’s why it’s probably a good idea to start learning it now.

Eh, about half of my family is Hispanic and 1/2 again speak some Spanish, the rest have fell away over the last 100 years. If your in the SW for more than a couple generations you more than likely have some people in your family speaking at least some Spanish.

According to White Raging Generals all enlisted men need to speak Chinese fluently by the end of next year

Probably never - the kids flip the language by the next generations. The grands don’t speak Spanish. They understand it, but hardly use it out n about.

Dunno, been trying to learn it since my in-laws speak it a lot. The second and third generation kids, though, while they can speak Spanish tend to choose English most of the time unless their elders are around. There’s not even that much Spanglish amongst them.

Whatever it is you’re afraid of, I think if my anecdote holds true, you needn’t let it take up space in your head rent-free.
