Earlier in 2023, top American lawmaker Rich McCormick, while addressing the US House of Representatives, said that Indian-Americans constitute about one per cent of the US population but pay about six per cent of the taxes. Does it ring a bell?
Interestingly, Indians are the highest-earning ethnic group in the US — ahead of people from countries like China and Japan.
About 4 million Indians currently reside in the US, including 1.6 million visa holders, 1.4 million naturalised residents, and a million are US-born residents.
The median family earnings of Indians in the US is USD 123,700, nearly double the nationwide average of USD 63,922. About 79 per cent of Indians are college graduates, compared to the nationwide average of 34 per cent, according to the report.
In fact, Indians are ahead of all the other ethnic groups in the US in median family earnings ranges. Taiwanese and Filipinos, with USD 97,129 and USD 95,000 of median family incomes, respectively, are in second and third place.
But why? The data highlights that 79 per cent of the Indian-American population in America holds a Bachelor's degree, while the national average is just 28 per cent, surpassing the overall American population in terms of wealth and college education.
In January 2023, Harsh Goenka, chairman of RPG Enterprises, took to Twitter to share a chart that shows Indian Americans having the highest median household income in the US.

Central Texas, too.
They get really ticked if you call them Indians.
Native Americans, if you please.
Yes, poverty level. They are all given a certain sum when they turn 18 or 21. Buy trucks and drugs with them. My neighbor told me that. He was 1/4 Native American and a drug counselor. So he knows.
Dot, not feather.
Because Indians only hire Indians for the good jobs.
It’s primarily self-selection. Only the smartest and most ambitious ones come to the US, and they are eager to make money.
There are plenty of not-so-brilliant people left back in India.
“”””They’ve now moved up the management chain, and of course, they only hire other Indians.””””
That is how the Hispanics/illegals have taken over so many areas of blue collar work, first one was hired, then he helped fill any openings with his friends and they make an unwelcome work site or company for the previous workers, after a while the restaurants are theirs, or the roofing business, or construction, or landscaping, or the machine shop openings, the car washes, sheetrock, concrete, even city jobs, and whatever the next step is.
Cricket is fascinating. I lived in Antiqua and Barbuda about 12-13 years ago just after Allen Stanford (who financed big-time T20 cricket) was busted for fraud. During my tenure in Antigua, I learned a lot about Cricket. This morning, I spent 3 hours re-learning everything I forgot.
I live in NW Arkansas; Wal Mart ground zero. We have a high percentage of Indians here, and they seem to be prospering.
My 14-yo custodial granddaughter attends a charter school, and I’d guess a full 1/3 of the students are Indian. The staff and faculty there tell me the Indians are the ones keeping the schools test scores so high.
Funny story-my wife had just picked up the granddaughter from school, and the girl just HAD to call me to tell me she’d won the geography bee. I asked her who the other finalist was and she told me. I said, “You beat an Indian!” I then gave her effusive congratulations and ended the call. A co-worker who had overheard the conversation said, “You know that boy’s dad is going to cane him when he gets home, right?”
Because lying and cheating are considered virtues in their culture. And they are extreme racists helping each other out whenever possible.
Notice that some of our biggest companies have Indians as CEO — Pepsi, Microsoft, Google, Mastercard, Adobe to name just a few.
If you ever watched the National Spelling Bee championship, they seem to be dominated by Indian-American kids, many homeschooled.
A significant number of 7-Eleven franchises in the United States are owned by individuals of Indian descent. This is due in part to the success of the North American Punjabi 7-Eleven Franchisee Association, which was formed in the 1980s to support Indian-American entrepreneurs in the franchising industry. Today, it is estimated that Indian-Americans own approximately 70% of the 7-Eleven franchises in the USA.
Indian-Americans are also well-represented in the Dunkin’ Donuts franchise network. While the exact percentage of Indian-American Dunkin’ Donuts franchise owners is not readily available, it is clear that they have a significant presence in the industry. This is due in part to the success of the National Association of Indian American Franchise Owners (NAIAFO), which was formed in 1999 to support Indian-American entrepreneurs in the franchising industry. Today, NAIAFO represents over 10,000 franchise owners across the United States, many of whom own Dunkin’ Donuts.
For your sake, I am glad. My favorite talk-radio host, Michael Berry, is married to one.
“There are plenty of not-so-brilliant people left back in India.”
Indira Gandhi complained about the brain-drain to the West.
I think it is because of all the Casinos they own.
It’s all part of the de-Christianization of the West that is the satanic driving force behind neoCONs and the leftists.
If you want to make friends with Indians, talk Cricket with them.
And beer.
I did not read the article.
Most Asian Indian male citizens came here as H1B software engineers, or as foreign students, and were sponsored for Green Cards by their USA employers.
Most Asian Indians who write software are completely average.
They compete against completely average native born Americans - solely on the basis of pay.
Fact...
Adjusted for inflation (+90%), the starting pay for a USA born software engineer straight out of college has not changed in 25 years.
Gotta install the MSN app to read the rest of the article. Oh well.
Pew Research sorts by religion.
Where in the chart are the Native American Indian - Americans?
Casino income, you know.
