The op is pretty much correct about work ethics. I have clients from europe in different fields who have expressed the same concerns.

A very troubling aspect is how often I see high school kids begging for money for their sports/other activities in front of stores. Who in the hell is teaching these kids to beg instead of trying to work for the money? I called the local high school to point this out and all I got in return was basically to screw off.

Why is your society more functional over the United States?

You should ask your question to yourself. A society where you can´t let childs go outside is a broken society in my opinion.

I would say it's more a fearful society than a broken one.

No doubt our country is driven on fear lately, but to call us broken would be calling the kettle black considering not long ago your country was having financial issues of its own.

Our financial issues were in no way as threatening than yours. Germany never lost its AAA rating. We fixed it 2003.

You keep reminding me more and more of the person from China who was here for a cup of coffee wanting to remind us how much more "free" China was than America.

You can give it a rest. If we were really as bad as you all said, we'd be gone by now.

Well, that's your experience with that one factory. Best not to judge a nation of millions of people on it. I've worked at places where you're expected to bust your butt the whole time. Where I work currently, we keep it light to keep morale up, but we're productive - we provide the best service in our industry, and that's what our customers say about us.

A bunch of questions and not a single statement. What exactly are you trying to get at?

I may be wrong but it appears that you are attempting to deny what people are saying about it being safe to walk to school and leave your doors unlocked. Well, I'll have you know that I used to walk or ride a bicycle or dirtbike to school, and the doors to my house have never been locked in my life. The keys to my cars are in the cars and I usually leave them in the car, with the doors unlocked (obviously) and the windows rolled down in the summer, even when I go to the store or something like that.

Yes, safe and lawful communities do exist. I can't quantify exactly what makes these communities so much safer and more lawful than others, but I do have some ideas about why that nobody wants to hear because they are not politically correct.

That is the point I am making by asking.

That some people still live in peaceful, safe communities.
And others do not no matter how small or large they are or their state of function or lack thereof.

The question is why people must choose whether they live in safe communities or not that they must put work above their flesh and blood.

And the answer is they should not. Because no matter how important your job is, your children are a million times more important. And if you as a parent want to take time from work to make sure the future of your nation arrives at school fine and well, then you should.

I am sure he feels the same way about children that if a parent wants to be confident they will act.

Wow...

I really wish America could have remained isolationists while the Germans...nevermind.

Our government is run by two groups who are more concerned with destroying the other than actually governing the nation. One group is far more guilty of this than the other, but the effect is the same.

What an original and constructive response, bravo.
