I'm not even going to start as it would take me many hours to type up my rant and I simply don't have that sort of time for such a non-sensical and down right pathetic attempt by a goverment to lower figures the easy way. Oi! sweatdrop

Haven't you Americans perverted the language ENOUGH?

But seriously, wow. If you think spelling needs to be easier, it's like admitting your country is stupid.

Not so much "easier" as "standardized". How many ways can "ough" be pronounced? Far too many.

I will not be able to rant about this anymore, since the article hasbeen removed, apparently.

Sad thing though, that american people are trying to make their easy language even easier, just because they cannot even learn to spell it properly.

This is only about those who support this idea, of course.

I support the idea of a spelling reform.

I have a better grasp of language as a whole (not just English) than anyone I know.

Why do I support the reform, then?

Look at the English language. It's completely chaotic.
