American work ethic? lol
Go to the unemployment office, welfare office, emergency room, or public school and then come back and tell me about this amazing work ethic we have but nobody else does. Compare it to German work ethic. And don't pull your dick out from under your shoe and try claiming Germany isn't Europe, because it is.
Good points, Dan.
I think our "make it happen" class would beat their "make it happen" class in most cases if only by shear volume of class members.
We both have our underclass that suckles at the teat.
Well, I think we proved that in WWII - even if we did borrow a little of their talent to make it happen.
In Germany, there is a well-known and much said slogan - "Die Arbeit Macht das Leben Zuss" - Work Makes Life Sweet. That's something my old man would say, but not something you hear during your day at school or watching TV in this country. Here, we glorify making money by being a player or a scammer, not by being a worker.
The fact is, producers and go-getters are always outnumbered by lazy shitweasels no matter what country you're in. I assure you there are French and Greek workers who kick ass and produce - they are just awash in lazy f.ucks.
The only sure thing is there is someone where Hank works who busts his ass all day that wonders why Mr. Drippy thinks it's OK to spend so much time online every f'n day.
