    ...its a fact,Asians have the highest rank as workers.Blacks have the lowest rank for work ethics....Now don't look at this as a defination of all blacks,but a majority fit the rank.

    Can you cite any studies that support your opinion, or is that all this is, your opinion?

    Work ethic is a culture factor--not a race factor. If you look at Saudi Arabia for instance---there is a lot of immigration for workers because Saudi's think much of the work out there is beneath them.

    Blacks in American tend to not incorporate "work hard and get ahead" within the Black Theology often taught directly and indirectly in majority black schools and within black families.

    And since our country is becoming more "liberal and progressive"---whites are losing the work ethic as well.

    Thank goodness for the Mexicans---that at least bring a work ethic into our culture.

    When ARAMCO first started in Saudi Arabia.. there was NO concept of a work day or a work week.. nor any concept of getting paid.

    So they'd come off the desert .. work for a day... get paid and wander off.

    They had NO concept of working 9 to 5 and would wander off to take a nap or run an errand anytime.. day or night.

    There is only one race, the human one. Most of its members object to being ripped off by capitalists.

    What a shocker. Another thread dedicated to bashing blacks.

    No I don't. I never just take someone's word for anything. If they make any kind of claim, especially one as egregious as this, they should be willing to back it up with studies and other facts.

    If someone says that the sun is hot, or that East Indians tend to have black hair, they may well be able to back it up.

    I wouldnt do it, tho, if challenged on that. Id probably say, "dont be tiresome".

    If you have some sort of interest in this bit of sociology you might want to look into it yourself.

    Which "egregious" did you have in mind?

    e·gre·gious


    Outstandingly bad; shocking.
    Remarkably good.

    This is a debate forum, this is a thread. The OP has made a claim and should be willing to back up that claim.

    I mean it's an outrageous claim, a shocking one, one that should be backed up with evidence to support it. Considering how they just posted it as a one liner and without any studies or facts to back it up I would say they did it as flame bait or to troll.

    Speaking as an employer in the concrete business I think that a person's work ethic is more about maturity and their station in life than their race.

    Speaking of being an employer in the produce business(40 yrs),the Mexicans have passed the blacks as workers,asian produce workers are smarter,and whites run the machines! Why ? Because of brain matter.....All you racial purest need to get with the program,you can't hide 2 million years of facts.....Look at Africa(home of the blacks) and look at the rest of the world,namely Europe,Asia,and America.....South Africa is reverting back to the jungle as the blacks take over more and more territory. I welcome the spell "Nazis"....:salute:

    But "race" has a great deal to do with station in life.

    Work ethic is totally individual, not a group phenomena.
    Race is not an accurate predictor.
