(8,994 posts)"Anecdotally" is an incredibly generous description of your remarks.
Your "every kid wants to be a hedgefund millionaire- none of them actually want to do an honest days work" is an often-spoken right wing Corporatist lie with zero basis in fact. If you work with students with your misguided attitude, I fear for them, too, the way you look down your nose at them with your horribly arrogant and tragically misinformed misconceptions.
As for good old American ingenuity, yeah, one person will innovate a new wind or solar technology invention, and guess who will be employed to build it? Not Americans, because they're not willing to live in little rabbit cages like the workers in China.

Work hard, for peanuts, and you might succeed.
As for Germany? They are protectionist, too. Apparently you don't know much about economics, either.
Oh, and did I also forget to add... you are LYING about American students?
