"The average educational level in Mexico, 8.5 years, is almost twice that of India, 4.4 years. Yet Indian immigrants in the U.S. average 16 years of schooling, whereas Mexican immigrants average nine years."

Those numbers are skewed by the law of averages.
India has 1.3 billion people, and over half of them
live in rural areas and are nearly illiterate.
Most of the Indians who show up here though have
Masters Degrees.
Formula: go to work at a job. Any job. Do not commit crime. No rape, no murder, no burning cars of buildings. Don’t use heads as bowling balls. Don’t go on welfare. Don’t pop out babies that you make US pay for!

Compare those numbers to these.
Sobering when you think of the effect of open border immigration
Remember Bell Curve, Genetics and IQ tests?
Oh that’s right, that’s racist.
It is not uncommon for some to go to school just to get stipends from their countries and not have to work. This is very common for graduate students to get multiple masters after getting a doctorate just for this reason.
I saw nothing about success in the article. Just education year levels. And as I see what the US higher education system is churning out, 20 years of racial/lesbian/polysci/etc studies don’t do a damn bit of good when trying to get into the Work force!
The education level in Mexico seems kind of irrelevant. Maybe if he knew the education level of the legal and illegal immigrants from Mexico in the United States he could make a point.
I call that total bullshit, WSJ or not...
Define "immigrants" and "educational attainment," then we can talk.
Even that brain dead doofus, Tom Sullivan was carrying on about provisional temporary residence for illegals from south of the border, "while we provide them with education in a trade," totally ignoring that 70% of them are ILLITERATE IN THEIR OWN LANGUAGE, NEVER MIND English!
How you gonna train them???.
How will they communicate with customers?
Yesterday, in a Costco parking lot a harridan Mexican and her 5-marimba bastards from 5-16 were tarrying around inside and outside a late model van, and she started screaming at me to close my door while she got her 200-pound ass out from the driver seat-- IN SPANISH...
I just smiled and ignored her, then told her I do not understand Spanish. I am fluent in Castilian Spanish, every dialect of Spanish south of the border, as well as a couple of other European languages, but she didn't need to know that.
Schdenfreude, God's gift to invadees.
The blacks in South Africa don’t want immigrants——from Somalia,Nigeria,and other African Nations.
We NEVER hear about that.
Been going on for about 7 years.
The bottom line is our crooked politicians want to pack the country with people who will overlook or not notice their corruption.
