Look, I don't like the way that Esperantists usually try
to "save the world", but you totally missed the point.

I don't mind that much that english & american people are
privileged if everybody else has to learn their language,
but it took me about 4 years to learn english good enough
to communicate about most subjects and about 2 weeks
to do the same in Esperanto.

Esperanto is not perfect. It's just handy and it's much
easier to learn than any natural language.
