I would have to disagree that most ethnic groups don't want to assimilate. Just one in particular seems to be the largest portion of the problem.

I live in an area with a large Hispanic population along with new Russian immigrants. The Russians have to learn a new alphabet along with a new language and become fluent in English in far less than one generation. Much of the Hispanics don't even bother to learn.

What is hilarious at times is the Russian farmers hire migrant Hispanics to do field work and yell at them in Spanish.
