Exactly, so why can't more Americans do the same?In all seriousness, immigrants of all ilk are the hardest working people I know. They usually have two or three jobs, sacrifice everything they have for the betterment of their children, and have a much higher proportion of their children going to medical school (or into pharmacy) than any other group where I live. They also work all the jobs that many North Americans do not want to do (often despite being trained as doctors, dentists, and other professionals in the countries they have come from). My mind is always boggled when Americans worry about immigrants being lazy and staying on welfare forever, because that is not at all what we see here.
