Are any of you bilinguals without a degree? Well I am, and I speak Spanish, and English very well. But, for the past seven years I have not been rewarded for what I know, which is two languages I can speak, write, and read very well. I think part of the reason is, because I do not have a degree, but

I am an experience worker in many fields. But, from my past experiences I'm going to explain how my pay was abused in private prisons, where I was employed before, and why this beautiful country needs to pay their bilingual employees more money, because they are not being rewarded for their hard work.

Thanks for the comment, Erin Snap I agree with you, but the U.S. needs to really do something about Bilingual's pay, by increasing it.laterz.

I know what you mean. At my last job bilinguals only made 50 cents more an hour than unilinguals (is that a word)? Unfortunately, very often people with degrees, whether they speak Spanish or Klingon, aren't making any money in today's economy. It all depends on the degree.
