Keep it up, Comrade Wilhelm. You’ll turn NYC into another Detroit-like ghost town yet.

Now, the test for a taxi license is available in several languages, to accommodate non-English speakers.

Some years ago their Public Library bragged how they had the largest collection of Korean-language books in the country.

To my mind, the only foreign-language books in a library should be a bi-lingual dictionary.

Just another in a long list of why I have no desire to go to NYC. Came through JFK a few times but only ventured outside the airport once and that was to make a connection from LaGuardia. That was a few decades ago so the cabbie spoke English.

My guess is Venezuela on the Hudson by 2020.

All legal immigrants are required to speak English. This tells me were talking about illegals and Muslim “refugee” invaders.

Have fun with it. After you determine your cabby named Mohammed doesn’t speak any English other than numbers (which I believe were originally Arabic anyway)and avenue names spend the rest of the ride telling him what you think of him and his mother and the prophet himself and the horse he rode in on, etc.

Now, that is as totally stupid as the Princeton University recent announcement. S-T-U-P-I-D
