I see this India Americans have the highest average earning fastly becoming 38% of NASA scientists are Indians V 2.0.
If the latter is just a blatant lie, the former is a crook piece of shameless propaganda with drastically manipulated data!
1. Indians coming to the US are highly selected, unlike Chinese Americans (for numerous generations already) or Euro Americans for example, hence the average earning makes no sense at all to compare with others. Its apple-orange comparison.
2. The article also stated Indians has almost half of H1B1 of 2011. It means by default Indians landed in America are the best of the best of India, on average, and receive, required by H1BI regulation, much higher wages than the American average. Of course they have higher average income compared with others.
3. Further, these H1B1ers are mostly young people, single, white collar, working age, not like other ethnic group for instance, the Chinese Americans or German or Italian or Swiss Americans, being scientists or doctors or builders or civil servants or railway employees
they come from all walks of life unlike highly selected Indian H1B1 which forms the lion share of Indian Americans.
4. Plus, not all working age Americans of other ethnicities work, some between jobs, some are unhealthy or disadvantaged physically receiving govt welfare, while Indians being mostly H1B1 have no such an issue in comparison.
5. Do you know what is Dutch American average income? And those of Spanish Americans? Norwegian Americans? Israeli/Jewish Americans? Belgian Americans? Japanese Americans?... etc. etc. yes, they dont count other successful ethnicities independently to compare with Indians, as they only count Indians.
6. More, of course they dont illegal Indians there who are many many more! Far more than 3 or 4 million Indians reported. Every time I go to America, I can readily see many Indians working in 7/11s, shabby car wash, motels along highways
of course, they dont count those.
7. If the US were to sets up a visa called H100B2 tomorrow and employ 20 best Africans from Congo Republic with USD 70,000 salary, in the same logic and comparison method arent the Congonese the most successful ethnicity of America? --- as ridiculous and as manipulated as what the OP polls claim!
Last, there is no such a thing as Asian American. Indian American originally didnt belong to Asia category. Indians lobbied the congress to out them under Asian title in order to qualify the very juicy Minority Loans. Utter shameless!
Those minority loans are sort of compensationfrankly to many real minorities such as the Chinese for their historical huge contributions made to the rise of America while being unfairly treated/discriminated. Indians are the new comers in comparison, mostly coming in for the last 2 decades or so, and they contributed nothing, nothing! , to the rise of America historically while stealing these precious and limited loans! A bunch of thieves, really!
