upset you...lol.
Anyway, don't worry about Spanish speakers. People who want to learn a language will learn it.

Well, in some countries like Spain or France that speak international languages, people do not need to study English.
We can say that British are foolish because they do not speak foreign languages, like French or Spanish, but that is not true. It is simpler, they speak an international language yet as mother tongue. The same as Spaniards or French people.

Guest2,
While I consider Spanish and French to be international languages, they won't work widely in many countries. Try Spanish in a ryokan or in Seven Eleven in Japan. Try French in a small town in the United States. English is just studied more, used more.
I think it's wise for everyone to learn a second or third language if they have any idea that they would like to travel on their own (yes, that means Americans too! Don't let Rick Steves fool you into thinking you can travel safely alone like he does. He has a camera person and a producer.) or if they plan to live in another country.
