More along the lines of American youth are becoming dumber by the year, don't want to exert whatever little brain power they have and are satisfied living off of mom & pop and this socialist government...

Maybe, but you can be sure they rank high in "self esteem".
This subject has been brought up before. It boils down to different cultures, different values. White v. Asian.
The fact that education is and has been part of Asian culture for generations, and the importance of a good education is instilled in Asian children at an early age as opposed to the education that starts at a very early age white children get which would be having the latest mobile, game, brandname sneakers, ipad, just might be the difference? Arranging "play dates"?? Ask an Asian how many "play dates" they had in their life. They probably had limited play time and they certainly had family time, but play dates? I don't think so.
While Asians have their heads buried in books, whites are playing sports and games and think that getting "high score" somehow has "value".
If white people harbor any resentment to Asians succeeding, maybe they should get more serious about education and get on board and stop thinking that being white is a privilege towards an entitlement to a mediocre education in a field of study where there is no demand. We are limited in fields of study because we have lost so much to outsourcing and insourcing due to uneducated/unqualified Americans. Studying in an area where there is a demand, and there is plenty of info out there as to the future growing markets, is the way to go if one wants a future. It would also require one to compete for a job because limited job markets are going to be a highly competitive.
But if you say the exact same thing about blacks, then you are racist. See the leftist reaction to Bill O'Reilly's recent campaign that black people should straighten up their attitudes and lives if they want to get better employment prospects.
Many Asians come from a culture where if you can't cut it, you best kill yourself.
Funny how nobody ever mentions this as being one heck of a motivator.
... and "cutting it" means you get to work in the family resturant or dry cleaning business for minimum wage for the rest of your life until you take it over.

.....and immigration policies.
The C students in China are putting together iphones or operating bulldozers. The newer immigrants here are a skewed highly educated segment and thier kids are being brought up with those values.
I mean, imagine if the tables were reversed and people from the US were applying for visas to go to China and work\relocate. Whom is China going to approve and will thier children be representative of all white people etc. and "US culture"? Oh heck no....lol.
