Why don't you take a look at the percentage of whites to hispanics in

than hispanics. Today, it's the opposite. Trust me, I know... I'm a
General Contractor in CA. Does it bother me? Not one bit. I don't care
who works for me as long as they put in an honest days work for their
pay. I guess I'm now a bigot for pointing out the facts and employing
some of them?

Perhaps in California, but nationally, Hispanics are 17% of the
construction workforce. I wouldn't know the percentage that is non-
English speaking, but clearly, if you are a construction related
retailer, bilingual signs make sense.
