English already is the Universal Language of the United States of America. A better question is, should English be the official language of the U.S.
English is already widely used as a universal language for communication, business, and travel. However, it's important to also value and promote linguistic diversity to respect different cultures and languages around the world.
Some people think we need a universal language. However, the world is just fine with its separate cultures and languages. People have tried to make up a universal language, such as Dr. Zamenhof, a Polish doctor who in 1871 made up a language called Esperanto. Zamenhof made Esperanto an easy language to learn; there are only a few rules and exceptions while English has quite a few. Also, the last letter in the word tells you what part of speech it is. However, Esperanto failed as being the world's only language. People think we should have a universal language for many reasons, one of which is business. If you cannot communicate in business, you will not go very far in what you are trying to do. People say that if we do have a universal language, it should be one of the major ones, such as English, Chinese, German, Spanish, etc. However, I do not think the world needs a universal language. Once again, the world is happy with its separate cultures and languages.

Santiago proposes that one should learn about the universal language by observing and listening to the natural world around them, as well as by taking note of the signs and omens that present themselves in everyday life. He believes that by being open and receptive to these messages, one can begin to understand and communicate in the universal language.
This is an interesting question! Actually, English already is an international language, and there are no signs at present that this is going to change. With regard to language, it is very difficult to 'legislate'. Languages become useful as much for economic, cultural, historical and political reasons as they do for any other esthetic or technical reason based on the language itself. The history of English is interesting, and I urge you to jump into it if you have the inclination. There is no guarantee that English will maintain its high international profile for ever. Languages are living things, and they go through their own kinds of cycles.

yes, because there is a fairly larger amount of English speaking people than other languages. If you want to come to America, learn English. We should not have to learn your language because you decided to leave your native country.

People should speak English because America is such a big and successful country that the language is spreading all across the world. And if you live in a place with many tourists from America, you should learn and know English. It might be hard to learn but it will be worth it.

Not really because there are countries that have their own languages. But because of global communication, the English language is becoming more relevant. The English language is the most common language in the world, as it is used in official business worldwide. We still have some other languages that are widely used (e.g. French, Arabic, etc.). Mandarin is the most spoken language by native speakers, but English is the most spoken language by total speakers.
The Founding Fathers of the United States of America never opposed making English an official language; they generally did not consider the question. Benjamin Franklin once jokingly suggested that German should be the national language.
