And "we" don't. Only a small group of people speak Creole. I want everyone to speak pidgin English.

That wasn't actually what I was referring to.

I realized the link I provided wasn't entirely clear, and actually changed it before you replied.

Basically, the point is, English itself possibly evolved from a pidgin language (namely, what you get when you blur archaic Anglo-Saxon and Norman French (which was itself something of a pidgin melange of Scandinavian Germanic and vulgate Latin).
