Why is nothing ever said about the hard working American Asians?

All I ever hear is how hard working the Hispanics are. And I agree to a point. I have worked with all the races during my lifetime, and the Asians work the hardest, and want to succeed the most. I worked with several Vietnamese and they would work 3 jobs if they could. They are a smart people. I lived in an area where there are many Asians, and the majority of them worked their rear ends off. Polite, learned English and assimilated. Very successful. I don't see this with the illegal immigrants. What is your experience?

Answer:
You and I don't normally see eye to eye on many things but on this one, I had to give you a star for. I had a Chinese girl that worked for me cleaning my business once a week and she was great. I never had a problem with her. She never stole she even refused to take the money dropped on the floor even though I said she could have it. 3 years she worked for me and then she got her masters degree and moved away. No one sense then has done half the job she did. God I miss her!
I think it depends on the person and you can't assume someone is a hard worker or slacker by their nationality.
where have you been? Hard working Asian Americans have been talked about so much, it's practically a stereotype.
The U.S. doesn't share a border with any Asian country.Plus you never see huge numbers of Asian-Americans marching in the streets like the Mexicans do.
Idk. I'm white and have been too busy to notice working 75 hrs a week.
Most people only complain about things they have a problem with, and there is no problem with immigration. Just illegal immigration. The asians for the most part do it the way it is supposed to be done and then work hard to succeed when they enter legally. You don't hear about them because they are not a problem!
I don't have a problem with anyone who comes here legally, is loyal to this country, learns the language, doesn't look for handouts . . . and doesn't claim that large portions of this country belong to THEM.

Fair enough?
why is nothing ever said about hard working American whites?
i have a friend who owns an Asian restaurant, very good food by the way. she is a hard working woman and expects her workers to work just as hard. she hires nothing but legal Asians to do the cooking in here restaurant. Asians are good people until they are pisssed off.
I think there are hardworking people in every culture--just like there are lazy people within each. I agree, I have met many hardworking Asians who thrive on advancing...most of them end up doing it through education.

Back in elementary school I can recall this Korean girl who had to sit in our class without knowing English. She learned through observation and new friends. Today she has made it, she has just opened up her own law practice after working two jobs to put herself through school. At the same time, I have worked two jobs to get through school.

I think every culture has their own hardworking. For example, the Hispanics say they are hardworking...they are correct. They say they do not like to be stereotyped or generalized when being referred to. However, they do this to themselves every time they call themselves hard working. We, as whites, are sterotyped everytime we are called lazy and don't want the jobs. It has nothing to do with not wanting jobs or being lazy. I think it is like a double standard. The truth is there are hard working people everywhere.
i agree, i have been to U.S. for almost 2 years now. My family spend over 10,000 dollars for the legal immigration process. Now, im glad to be here with my family, but compare with other students in my school, i have to spend much more time for my study, and get involve in school's activites.
I really think that Asian Americans work really hard~
Yes, Asians tend to be hard workers, whats your point? All cultures have hard workers, what does this have to do with immigration?
You never hear it because Asian immigrants are here legally for the most part. Mexican illegals need an excuse, a rationalization to be here breaking our laws so they blame us saying we are lazy and they are soooooooooo hard working and that other bs. I agree we are lucky to have so many new citizens from Asia.
I believe that you go around protesting against illegals, when in reality you are really against the Mexicans. Just because you believe the Asians work the hardest doesn't make them all legal. They too enter the US illegally. Like everybody else mostly all immigrants, regardless of their nationality come to the US to prosper.
Yes, Asians are not only are one of the hardest working people, but one of the smartest. Very few our work or out study Asians
Because Asians don't scrub their own toilets
