Can't tell if serious. Those that can hear do not learn to read and write before they learn to speak, and yes virtually every European and most educated Americans can communicate in a second language just fine, myself included.It is a common misconception that deaf people can just take texting for granted like others do. Written word is more like a second language to someone who thinks in ASL.
Ever tried to communicate in a language you didn't learn natively?
And no, texting is not as efficient as just speaking just as I imagine ASL is faster than texting. So grab your wallet and pay for it or shop for a competitor. Even us poor able-bodied people frequently have to deal with crappy bundled plans where we buy stuff we can't use to get what we want that is bundled in.
I don't listen to 99% of the channels on my satellite radio, I don't watch most of the shows except HBO/Showtime out of the hundreds, etc. No need to cry for being treated the same as everyone else.
