I have heard some remarks from Africans from West Africa, saying that "South Africans and African Americans are 'lazy' and don't want to 'work.' And all we do is to complain and expect free things." I mean, if those people who make those comments are hardworking, then why are they immigrants and always seeking to escape their countries? What do they have to show for perceived hardworking traits inherent in them? Why are their countries poverty stricken, desolate, war-torn, desert like despite being hard-workers?
