Forcing immigrants to learn the native language, or perhaps punishing them if they don't, will only create divisions and demonize the nation the immigrant is moving to. What we should do instead is to provide free language sessions and encourage it, not just because of a moral or philosophical imperative, but because immigrants that can speak the language willingly are highly likely to be patriots that will care for the society they move to, and more productive in the economy by being able to take up a wider range of jobs (in which we have dire shortages of labour across all professions)
