re: What is the reason why Indian(India) people are so successful here in the US ?

Because the best of the best are usually the ones that make it here. Also, their education system is way more focused on future careers.

They get grants to buy businesses and don't pay taxes on those businesses for 10 years. They then pass the business onto a family member to get 10 more years of tax free status.
They are successful because they take advantage of socialists programs we have in place for them.
I couldn't find more info on this. Perhaps using the wrong search terms. Do you have links to this data?

Education is top priority over anything for us. Education over everything like sports, arts.
Also parents also wants you to take degree that makes you money. Education is the way of making money and honor.
We have 7th grade taking extra classes to get into top colleges. 7th grade.
Indians are also street smart and cunning. Don't let the softness fool you. Very frugal unless it is gold.

Because only the wealthiest can afford to move here.
There's thousands of them in North DFW, our neighborhood is full of them.
They will buy a 450K home and 15 people live in it, like a commune.

Companies that exploit the work visa program has been developing their talent instead of Americans for 20 years?

Because we're taught Math and science wether we like it or not. We're also taught to respect others, follow the law and work our assess off. It's a winning formula.
Frugality and business acumen actually isn't the most common trait at all.

Yeah they might be good at learning stuff but when it comes to action nobody beats Americans. We beat their arse in two opium wars, we can sure as hell beat them in the workforce.

I know Jews are jokingly called cheap, but I've never met a more "frugal" group of people than the Indians I work with.
Its ridiculous. They live with like 3/4 people per 1 or 2 bedroom apartments in shitty areas. They don't drink or have fun at night or on weekends. They don't pay for cable. They never eat out at restaurants other than cheap Indian spots. They cook all their own food and bring to work and its cheap food like rice and veggies. (and stinks like shite)
We do donations for charity every year and compete against other groups in the company. Its a minimum $10 donation for each person to count as having "donated". Just $10. For great causes. And we have to pull their fricking teeth for months to get it from them.
And yeah, they do work hard, but they also spend like 2 hours each day in the bathroom fixing their hair and washing their face.

You're thinking of China. India (under British control) was actually on the winning side in both wars. The US also didn't fight in the first war.
But the main reason is work ethic and usually only the best and brightest of Indians come over here.
My family isn't frugal but most the other Indian families we know are.

A lot of these kids that come here to study come from very little. So they don't have the social skills and mannerisms to begin with. But they learn quickly and adapt to America better than any immigrant class.
A lot of the tech execs in Silicon Valley and other places are people who came here for education. This is also why I like the idea of prioritizing these people for h1b visas. That was actually the intent all along until outsourcing came along.

We're all really afraid of our dads. It helps us self monitor behavior.

Agreed.
Let the smart ones come over here and lets incentivize them to stay and become US citizens and pay taxes.

Your getting bogged down in all those details you love learning about. Point is Americans get shite done.
