Hard Work and Heart
I’m a dual citizen of Canada and the US. Really, there isn’t a vast difference in terms of the culture. Even my family, being francophone Québecois, is culturally very compatible with the US (or at least the secular New England region that I call home)
What do I admire most about Americans? They work hard. I know there’s the stereotype of laziness, but I think that this is inaccurate. Most Americans work their butts off, and many never complain.
I also like that in the United States, nobody is above or below you socially. Someone might think they’re above you, but in the end, Americans will not hesitate to personally call out a butthole, whether that butthole happens to be Bill Gates, Steve Spielberg, Hilary Clinton, Danny Bonaduce or Dale – – the guy from the trailer park a few blocks away.
Also, Americans love innovation. It’s a great place to take a novel idea and run with it.
