Americans Work Hard

Mister Trump,

I think the study is irrelevant for the rest of the world. Wealthy nations are importing labor force from the other countries. For example in London most of the public services jobs are occupied by foreign people (Indians, Pakistanis, Romanians, Africans).

Yes we are proud of America but also there are a lot of foreigners who work like crazy to make some money, so... Anyway here in Romania the productivity is very low so i think I should congratulate the US for being able to impose an efficient system, a successful system.

I personally don't like Americans, I consider them uneducated and lazy but because of their efficiency they are the best. So: CONGRATULATIONS.

Yes they work hard, they all do in different levels, some work smarter than others but we all work hard.
If this the case why do we the huge financial mess we are coming into the possbile recession. Now the foreigners want a piece of the action real estate etc.
We all working. Now my company who on of the largest property management companys, just listed that we are in a credit crunch in the retail.
Internally there has to be a drastic change in America.
The same agenda and response to the problem is not working and not happening fast enough. The stubborn ways of yesterday is hurting our future growing power. We have all the resources.
What is the internal change we need today Mister Trump.

Americans work hard because they love their country, their nation. It is very good habit for the people to work hard. Because of the hard work Americans do, the products you make are in top quality level. I think everyone in the world wants to have American products, because of highest technology, reliability and manner the products operate.
I love the American nation and generosity of Americans toward the world is because of the hard work Americans do.
The world must be proud for having America!

Mr. Trump,

I'm not surprised. I'm not one for generalizations, so I'll simply share that many of the people I know and love live these ethics.

Despite the fact that Americans are characterized as overconfident, feeling entitled, unrealistic in our expectations of the workplace, change oriented, questioning of authority, and irreverent, many of us hold in high esteem integrity, honesty, honor, respect, and ethics/morals, and we're still very ambitious, disciplined, hard-working, driven, dedicated, willing to sacrifice, able to conform if we have to, and have a respect for authority.

We feel more productive and creative than at any other time in our lives, and our ideas, creativity, energy, optimism, experience, maturity, and patience still guide us.

Dear Mr. Trump & Trump U., Since America is a free enterprise society and we went from a industeral age to manufacteral age to information age to now the capital age. America produces more self made billionares now and faster then ever before. Put generational handed -down wealth aside for a moment. Now put Wall Street and Main Street aside too. Last and foremost put the whole world of spectulator's and investor's on the side line with the other's already mention. Now we should have a good picture of the last man standing in America's system. The name of this man is "CURRENCY"! We got the world holding our IOU'S. We got our own governent printing money faster then we can spend it on ourselves. All this big ball of uncertainty causes STRESS! to markets every nano second. Education in America's oldest institutions costs more in one year than houses in New Orleans. But the solution to all this for a blunt instrument to understand is what Trump University is teahing us. And that is you have to believe to achieve your dreams of success. In the words of Albert Eienstien," The Most Powerful Force In The Universe Is Compound Interest". This is why American's work very hard for the love of money. Cedric Bell, charitablechildcare@yahoo.com.

When it comes to any study, I always want to take time to understand exactly what was measured and how. America is a lot more productive because of our technology. It takes fewer labor hours for us to produce because we use robots, computers, automatic systems. Granted some of the wealthier countries do to. Some of us, not to mention any names, have tremendous work ethic, but not all.

One thing I learned in working with students from Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan, Kazakstan, and Turkmenistan, is that making so much money in oil has affected the cultural attitude toward work in that region. Those students arrived with the belief that only stupid people work hard, and physical labor is beneath them. Only poor people work more than one job. A smart person doesn't have to work, but gets an important title and gets paid for doing nothing from the oil companies. Of course they were youth, not in the actual work force yet.

In America, intelligent people contribute. Laziness is stupid, and it is not a trait that is admired. I love to work, but I want work that shows results and lasts.
