Legions of social scientists and historians have debunked the myth of the Asian-American’s “natural” orientation toward economic achievement. They point out that it is more a function of immigration trends in the 1960s, which favored East Asian professionals who often arrived with significant educational and wealth advantages.

What utter nonsense. Of course Asians have a better work ethic and focus on educational advancement than do other ethnicities, such as Blacks and Hispanics.

How odd...or not. In the same issue of Business Insider is another article which writes about “Why Asian Americans excel at academics”.

Even if true, wouldn't that be a better way of handling all immigration?
