Why does B*sh hate the free market?

Today he suggested that immigrants learn to speak in English. He and anyone else for that matter can suggest that people learn anything but as far as learning English or speaking it, no one has to do so. Sure people immigrating to this country have to learn it for a test but that is it. No one is under any legal obligation to speak English, ever.

The big flip-flop on B*sh's part is he has always said he "believes in free markets." Guess he doesn't anymore. More and more companies have added Spanish as an option to their automated phone services, more companies require more bilingual employees. The free market is assimilating to Spanish very well

1. Republicans like the free market if it serves THEIR financial interests.

After all, corporate welfare is just fine for these folks. Traditional conservative thought bears little resemblence to the neo-cons of today. Immigration is just his current scapegoat-ism. Little more.
