LOL, Americans are definitely NOT ambitious to a fault. The vast majority believe that a 9 to 5 is a great accomplishment worthy of applause.
Have a job that affords you a roof over your head? Hero.
Have a job where you need public assistance because your employer won't pay you enough to make ends meet? Villain.
American rhetoric is ambitious. Americans in practice are just as lazy as everybody else. Americans will point to the French and claim that they're lazy and don't want to work, but would never dream of fighting for their labor rights the way the French do.
