An Indian friend of mine told me that when they come here there maybe an investor pool of 50..they make some money and then that pool drops to 25, then 10 and so on. Eventually they have made enough to go at it alone.

This is something we have to start talking about immediately

People with IQs that low have little to no impulse control, and are much more violent. There’s no even theoretical upside to their presence, they’re unemployable. And that’s before we start talking about the problems that come with a heterogenous society (Putnam).

They run the most phone scams, willingly buy up roach motels and move their family in to room 1. They also will run a convenience store likes it nobodies biz

Yes, Indians have been successful for the same reason Jews have. It’s ingroup preference and intelligently exploiting the system for their own benefit. It’s all very zero sum thinking though, it’s profiting at the expense of the majority.

The open border policies are a good example of that.

The problem with this strategy though, it only works as long as your a small minority, and don't have too much power. If you're too successful, you will blow up the country, and leave it a poor and violent place. And I think we're at that junction now

Interestingly, I don't think I know of any Indian-Jewish couples, but lots and lots of Jewish-East Asian couples, and a fair number of Indian-White couples. Not sure what that means, if anything.

They have to go back. North America has to return to demographic makeup prior to 1965. We must repeal the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965. End blanket birthright citizenship. End dual citizens serving in government.

A nationalist movement is all that will save this Republic.

Our system will collapse if remigration doesn't occur.

They prioritize family and education. Like the Jews, Koreans, Chinese, etc.

I mean, the Gujarati are treated as failures if they don’t build or buy their own business. That’s a great reason you’ll find them running a convenience store in BFE.

Clannish and rapacious minority groups are particularly adept at exploiting high trust societies.

A lot of the comments here are case in point.

Selective immigration where only the best Indians come to the US.

Most of India is both a literal and figurative shithole. If everybody in India came to the US, it would be a disaster.

It's not just them though, it's also Chinese and other east Asians who Americans somehow buy into the myth they're more intelligent than Americans.
You're talking about massive populations to cull the cream of the crop from. Very likely that the self-selected few from these populations that come here are above the American IQ average.

I think it's both of these things

The problem is that it comes at our expense, and it locks us out.



I asked an Indian (born in TX) why they are all driven to medical, law, etc jobs



His answer from his parents is that they didn't sacrifice and deal with racism/xenophobia/whatever so that their kids could work min wage jobs

The answer is the same variable that is always strongest associated with success - a stable family unit that prioritizes education



Affirmative Action and DEI actually locks Asians/Indians out. This is the answer. Very similar to the white population - you have very successful folks, but you also have your fair share of folks that manage gas stations or are drivers. But education and strong family unit is always seen as the pathway to success.

It's also why most of them are capitalist and conservative. The only ones I know who are democrat are either young/idealistic or have succumbed to Democrat fear mongering of Project 2025.

They have the drive and go get it approach. They also get cheap money that American citizens cant get to purchase or start businesses.
Don't know if it's still holds true but at onetime, that cheap money came with a end of year ~7 rates went up. Alas the loop hole was the one who had it for the nearing 7 year term would turn said business over to a family member. The 7 year term would then reset. So they just kept passing the business around to family members maintaining that cheap money.
