There are good facts in your post. I was hired by a manufacturing outfit in 1963. My boss liked my work so from then on, my boss expected every Indian to be like me, and then any Indian who walked in through the door was immediately hired. Pretty soon we had 6 Indians working in my department, responsible for design and stress analysis of metal working machines. That 50-50 rule you mentioned was pretty damn close. We also had 2 Chinese, 1 Russian and 1 Japanese American in our group. The Japanese American was brilliant mathematician. The Chinese guys had good work ethic but not very good at creative thinking.
I’ve been incredibly fortunate in my life to work with the best of the best for the majority of my career. IBM Research wasn’t hiring easily and for sure they weren’t just hiring locally. We had researchers from every part of the world and they were magnificent. The international standards group brought everyone together and working with them was pure joy. I headed our professional organization and ran conferences and newsletters. There weren’t any losers to be found and one’s background was only interesting, not important. This was the melting pot that I saw that was America.

I was Secretary to this group and the people in the video were the main names of that field.
For every Dinesh D’Souza there are a hundred Pramila Jayapa’s.
By all means, bring in the good productive Hindu and Sikh Indians but KEEP OUT THE COMMUNIST UNTOUCHABLES!
Jayapa and Kshama Sawant should be deported for that reason alone.
