I find that I can't agree with the thoughts expressed by the image of Uncle Sam saying "This finger wasn't made to press "One" for English."
In this era of a global economy, with a lot of people that don't speak English, it is only reasonable to have things like ATM machines and similar items like web pages be able to accommodate other languages. Things like this have been done in Europe for many years.
It is also to our advantage to have items like traffic signs using the international pictures, so drivers don't make errors and cause accidents.
Doing such things costs us next to nothing, and makes it a lot easier on visitors to the USA.
