P.S. I’ve always thought that this comparison of the per-capita income of Swedes in Sweden and the per-capita income of folks of Swedish ancestry in the United States is very persuasive.

Same is true of almost all ethnic groups.

Also true of education. We hear all the time about how US education is horrible compared to other countries.

We never hear that Japanese here outperform their cousins in Japan, Chinese-American outperform Chinese, German-Americans outperform Germans, etc., etc.

AFAIK the only ethnic group for which this is NOT true is the Finns, where those in Finland slightly outperform those in America.

how does that stack up comparing those from Carribean, Latino, and African countries?

My dear friend just returned from her beloved India. She said the traffic with the constant blaring horns was horrible, and the pollution made her sick.
For the Eurowannabees..... I just tell them about the closet tax.
