How about those 1040 instructions printed in Spanish, or did you forget to

The United States is also only a small fraction of the world, and it has an
obsession with political correctness and a substantial minority of Spanish

The odd thing is that most people in the U.S. who can speak only Spanish are
illiterate in both English _and_ Spanish.
