    I find it a telling point that many things established or built by our government say “In God We Trust” and not “In a god we trust”. This country was established by men who were believers in God and His mercy and His ideals. Not mans.

    Right on Troy!! We (usa) have to many tree huggers, and bleeding heart groups out there that find this God talk offensive.To Bad!! This country was founded on those beliefs.

    Are you sure about that? I think spanish is the standard in the construction industry, you have to speak fluent Samolian to get any help at wally world. To ask if the fish are biting on the St Croix you must know a couple asian languages. To speak to the tourist at lake Harriet during the summer, you better brush up on Russian… however, I had one give me an american $20 bill for a carp one day

    This is in no way an attack on other cultures, but it sure is a communication issue that every *american* has to deal with every day in a metropolitan area(makes no different what race)… wouldnt a lot more get done, or at least be understood if we didnt have to have an interpiter wherever we go?
