I always liked the American "Can do" and hard work/self reliance ethic. People from here who worked hard and got nowhere, moved to America and worked hard, reaped the rewards. Which is i suppose why people from across Europe seen America as Shangri-La. In the UK and Ireland, we have come to rely on the state to do everything for us, and thats not working brilliantly anymore either.
