The military has always had policies of speaking in any other language but English in the work place. It has it's place at work.

I can see English only in the military work place. However, I think its way out of line in a place like Taos where Spanish is the heritage of so many residents, going back to long before New Mexico became part of the US.

And yet, it is certainly our right to make unpopular decisions when owning and running a business. If the idea was not a good one, the result will be reflected in the success or failure of the business. As mentioned in the article, this guy had a successful track record and understandably believed that you stick with what works.
