A town for the deaf

American people want to build a town for deaf or hard of hearing people where the language spoken would be "sign language".
: Teachers in the new school will sign, restaurant workers will be required to know how to sign orders etc.
They think that nothing much is done for those who can't hear. The Deaf want to live all by themselves. and promote their own culture.
Is it a good idea ?
"I understand the désire to be round people like ourselves but I don't think it's very Wise" says Todd Houston , executive director of the Alexander Graham Bell Association for the Deaf and Hard of hearing in Washington.

There is a question I would like to also ask. Is it Wise to have the old living together, the dead or the disabled living together ?Is n't it better when there is contact which provides benefit to everyone?

sorry about my mistake. I was meaning the deaf of course
In fact I also don't believe in segregation.

Anyway, like Gérard, I understand that it is not easy (It is very expensive) to obey the rules. These rules will be compulsory in 2015 for all office practices.
