Hail a yellow taxi in New York City, and there is a good chance the driver is from another country. Passengers are regularly exposed to a range of languages that span the globe, from Spanish to Bengali to Urdu.

It can be charming, but also maddening for riders who feel that drivers do not understand where they want to go. [No one is charmed to find that his taxidriver doesn’t know Englishoperative Emma G. FitzSimmons, to keep form being called a “racist.”] Don’t you have to speak English, some wonder, to drive a taxi here?

As of Friday, the answer is no.

That is when new rules went into effect eliminating the requirement that taxi drivers take an English proficiency exam. Now, the test for a taxi license is available in several languages, to accommodate non-English speakers.…

Here's a continuation of the discussion on black intelligence and the proposal by Trump advisor,Steve Moore----to let blacks go to the schools of their choice.What you have to consider is why?Why waste the time of teachers in "good" schools by dumping uneducatable blacks into their classrooms?Trump is being disingenuous by proposing this as a solution.It's a pure political piece of crap,that also opens up other complications(more neighborhood deterioration,for one thing)The blacks will jump on this plan,thinking,"we finally will FINALLY have equal education".But without the capability to retain the knowledge,as a large percentage of blacks cannot do,it is a faux solution.
Of course,if Trump and Moore would REALLY be non PC,they would bring out the studies showing the lack of black intelligence--compared to whites and Asians,and state those facts.They would point out the chaos in black schools that occurs on a daily basis.Blackboard Jungle?It's just a jungle.
Does anyone think black misfits will pay more attention in class and retain more knowledge,with white teachers?Doesn't it seem just as likely to cause instant frustration to the new black students,followed by dropouts and violence in the class?
This is pandering to the blacks,in a different way than Clinton does.Both candidates are not being honest about blacks--but what's new?It's politics--not reality.
