These laws were based on a belief in a "racial uniform" that deemed Chinese immigrants as undesirable and inferior. Germans and Irish immigrants, on the other hand, did not face the same level of discrimination and were able to assimilate more easily. It is inaccurate to suggest that Chinese immigrants did not work as hard or preferred to live in the slums.
