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.

54 percent of Indian Americans identified as Democrats, 16 percent as Republicans, and 24 percent as Independents. In 2016, 46 percent of Indian American voters identified as Democrat, 35 percent were Independent or Other, and 19 percent identified as Republican.
And that is proof that being "black" in skin tone (or dark brown) is not a reason for lower grades and lower salaries.
People who have strong families, hard work and education can win

Gujaratis are a separate nation within the federation of India with a really over (1200+ years old) written language with literature, plays etc. written in that language.
They also have a long history and are at the forefront of the anti-muhammedan movement due to being at the border fighting off (or more often subjugated to) Turco-Mongol empires.
