[quote=Anonymous]When I think of WASP culture I think of Protestant work ethic. In many respects the WASP culture built this country. You still see remnants of WASP culture in our fast work pace as compared to the European leisurely work pace. I think part of the WASP culture is the belief that with hard work you, too, can get ahead which would never have been possible in the old country. No doubt the US settlers in the 1650s, 1660s, 1670's and 1680s would have been tough as nails people. Much of life would have been hard, hard work coupled with hunger during famines.[/quote]
