Asian cultures promote stronger study and work ethics, and limit television watching… I’ve heard of studies done, showing that they dedicate many more hours a day studying than other ethnicities…This is why, growing up, they always seemed to be the best students in class… Also, among Asian cultures, more kids are born into two parent households, than other cultures, which, studies have shown, give you a better chance at success in adulthood… It both categories, blacks ranked last, while whites were somewhere in the middle, among other ethnicities…

Joe Ferguson forever Posted September 24 Posted September 24 While much of this is cultural, as much or more is socioeconomic. Poor whites are also often unmotivated. I think it’s less about race and more about multigenerational poverty.

Perhaps…I agree that it is less about race…However, as difficult as it may be, people have to fight against being kept down by their socioeconomic status, especially if they want a better life… And it is not like it can’t happen- people do it all the time…My family is a great example… But it’s a mentality…And not everyone is wired to be a “fighter”. So those people have to either work harder at bettering their situation, or settle for substandard living…And, it’s also important to note that some people are ok with settling, especially if it’s all they’ve ever known… I also think poor people coming from other countries have a different mentality than poor people born here… For example, most Asians who come here start out dirt poor…Within a generation, their kids have started assimilating, and their strong cultural values propel them to success in this country… But I agree with you that the topic is very nuanced, with many layers… I would love to recommend a book for you I think you might find intriguing… It’s called Black Rednecks & White Liberals by Thomas Sowell…You will read about stuff in this book that they don’t teach in schools…You seem like someone who would appreciate this …👍 Edited September 24 by JaCrispy 1
