> As screwed up as the US economy might be I have many Asian friends who have emigrated there in the last decade and have done very well for themselves. Why? Because they were willing to work their assess off.

So much to this, their are so many dry-cleaners and Chinese food store owners who are millionaires because of this.

Wow, I love racism.

My friends are: in art (on the business side), in beer (import), in tech (a couple of them) and one is a chef in NYC.

None of them are millionaires but they've done better in their careers than if they didn't go to fight it out in a different market.

I didn't read the gp comment as racist. He was just pointing out that there are dry cleaners and food store owners that are doing well.

(I haven't been to the U.S., are all dry cleaners foreign?)
