re: Patels make up less than 1 in 500 Americans, but they own over 50% of all motels in the US

I grew up with a Patel. His family owned over a dozen Scottish Inns across three states. Ever see a stereotypical no-tell motel with a 29.95 per night sign? That was every one of their hotels 
nice people though.
nice people though.

I stay in a lot of hotels, but have never fricked a Patel.

Maybe the older generation. I have a Patel friend in his late 30s and he's always traveling and enjoying his life.

Now do the number of Patel’s that carjacked, smashed and grabbed and shot anybody.

They are currently working on a hybrid design of hotels and motels to be called a patel.

most indians i know are nice enough but they're so fricking weird and have absolutely nothing to say about anything. i've never heard an indian tell a (funny) joke/quip/one liner.

They’re also very racist against whites.

So much bigotry in the OP

Ok so are we going to use the government to take those hotels away and give them to poor white people who couldn't manage a one-roster spot fantasy team in the name of racial equity? No? The equity in race stuff is just plain racism? Got it.

One of the reasons the price of hotel has gone way up while the quality has gone down. They now have a monopoly on the hotels so they can charge whatever they want while at the same time spending the bare minimum on maintenance and services. They take the money from the US and send back to their relatives in India so that money no longer stays in the U.S. There should be a law against selling our industries to foreigners.

Anecdotal but they will frick over people they do business with very quickly.

Hotels, Motels, and Patel’s.

It has to do with their Caste system. Patel’s are in the Hotel line of work. I’ve heard that the surname is not that large in India, but disproportionately large here per capita.
None of this is true.

have no problem with this….if folks are in this country legally and want to start a business, I am good with that. I find them to be generally hard-working, likeable folks.
All immigrants who go through the proper process to get here legally tend to be good members of society. They’re usually hard working and intelligent. Even African immigrants succeed at a very high level compared to the native black Americans.
It has nothing to do with race. The reality is a free society like ours requires people who are hard working, have a basic set of morals, and value freedom and independent thinking. You have to be capable of self sufficiency. The percentage of a population of any race or demographic who contains these traits is probably around 25%. And America was founded so that 25% could come here and thrive and avoid oppressive governments supported by the idiotic 75%. The problem is the past few decades we started allowing the unwashed masses to come without vetting them and it’s bringing to many of yhe 75% and becoming a burden on the 25%. The 75% will just vote to be told what to do and vote for free stuff and destroy our free society, and government is ok with it because they get more power. We have to focus not on keeping out certain races or religions but focus on keeping out the dregs of each group. We need the hard working, educated, independent minded Europeans, Hispanics, Africans, Asians. The criminals, idiots, lazy, socialists, etc can stay in their shithole countries.
