What about the English language makes it inherently good? Does it make you a harder worker than that Indian, Mexican or Sengalese guy? Smarter?
The argument to be made is that a singular primary language assists in the maintaining of a cohesive society.
The more you fracture into groups, the less cohesive you become.
Having a primary language for any country is the appropriate course of action, IMO.

Since our inception recent immigrants have congregated in their own communities because it's comfortable. Italians, Irish, Chinese, Vietnamese, Koreans, Mexicans, Cubans, Jamaicans, Haitians, etc. They open shops and restaurants -- easy entry trades. By the second or third generation their children don't even speak their parent or grandparent's native language.
This has always been the way things work.
