They may live on a lesser quality of life than us Americans but I still feel that they live happier lives. Seeing as the consequences for being independent and free are more severe in these countries, people tend to have a better outlook on a job that doesn't bring joy to their life. In America, the general populist hates their job. Wants one that does this or that. With that mentality how is labor going to develop? Honestly Americans have got it good. Hate your job? Just quit. Even I have done that. Sure it was rough, but I didn't starve, I didn't loose anything. Too many infrastructures to milk off of to go completely dry. If someone in one of the Eastern countries did this, they would be dishonored by their family, and most likely lose more than an American would.

Simply put, to increase production and labor in the states we would need to learn to work these supposed lessor working conditions and jobs.

Which, with the nations standard of living being around that of the life of a middle class household, will most likely never happen. Thankfully we have illegals for those substandard lifestyles that do exist inside the states.
