Tex-Mex
What should I do? Learn more spanish, or vietnamese, or chinese or whatever language I need to communicate with the new illegal "citizens" that seem to be everywhere. I can no longer ask any questions at a convenience store or gas station because all they know there is the price of what I have brought to the counter. And please don't ask directions anywhere because you just get a big smile and a shrug. Is anyone else having any of these problems or is it just me?

Out of those languages, go for Spanish. Don't go near Chinese because the Chinese alphabet has (wait for it) 40-50 thousand letters/characters.
Now we know why English is the more popular second language ;-)

Here's and idea. Let's take a page out of the boycotter's book and boycott any store that has a clerk that can't communicate in english.
