Checks GDP per Capita[1]. I believe she meant "some Americans don't appreciate the Asian culture, where some Asians have a deep worth ethic that some Americans haven't bought really bought into yet."

- shadowfox 13y agoMaybe I am confused. What does GDP have to do with this?
- yardie 13y agoSince the P in GDP stands for productivity and the US has one of the highest GDPs I find it extremely ironic when someone says Americans don't have or don't understand work ethic.
