As a person who has been debating with Americans since the late 1980s. I’m my opinion the “well read” Americans like Kevin The ones who do the reading and research and still question what they are being told are few and far between. More and more Americans are the type to watch biased commentary from FOX or MSNBC to get their data and facts and then regurgitation of what they remember the next day during the lunch break. The type that only reads the headlines of an article. But wont read the article and won’t question/fact check what they are being told in that article

European Economic Review Volume 144, May 2022, 104079 Asian American Discrimination in Harvard Admissions Among typical applicants, Asian Americans actually have a slightly higher unconditional admit rate than whites. But as we show in Section 3, these unconditional admit rates mask substantial differences in qualifications between the two groups. While it is widely understood that Asian American applicants are academically stronger than whites, it is startling just how much stronger they are. During the period we analyze, there were 42% more white applicants than Asian American applicants overall. Yet, among those who were in the top ten percent of applicants based on grades and test scores, Asian American applicants outnumbered white applicants by more than 45%.2 Of course, Harvard values more than just academics. And here, too, Asian American applicants as a whole perform as well or better than white applicants on most of Harvard’s ratings. But Harvard’s ratings may also be affected by racial preferences and penalties. Indeed, Harvard acknowledges that race, in the form of preferences for under-represented minority groups (URMs), is one of the inputs into the overall rating (Day 4 Trial Transcript, p. 50).3 Consistent with this, we find large racial gaps in the assignment of the overall rating conditional on academic strength. Similar patterns hold for the personal rating, suggesting that this measure is also directly influenced by race. Further, we show that racial groups who have observed characteristics associated with lower overall and personal ratings score higher on these ratings, again suggesting a direct role of race Science Direct

@JS-tt9hi yes in short there is more money on Wall Street. Chinese stock market is a casino They have no market makers, where only 14% of the Chinese population invest in stocks. 85% of the trades are done by retail mom and pops. 81% trade at least once a month And most importantly 67% of the people have less than a high school graduation.

@striker44 are you the typical Indian intellectual ? There is now a 27 book series on Chinese inventions that says we copied or stole from them These days the Chinese lead in 37 of 44 critical technologies of the future The narrow minded view? Is to concentrate on the 7 technologies that China does not lead in…. Then arguing they can’t innovate 👇 Why was China erased from Western memory? The remarkable history of Chinese invention - Article by 龙信明 Introduction Joseph Needham was an English medical doctor and biologist, teaching in England in the 1930s. By an accident of fate he acquired some Chinese students, and was intrigued to hear their claims of so many medical and scientific discoveries having originated in China, rather than in the West. Needham became fully fluent in Chinese, and eventually moved to China in 1942 to investigate these claims and to research the entire history of Chinese invention. That work led to an astonishing voyage of historical discovery. Needham originally planned to write a book cataloguing Chinese inventions, but his first volume barely scratched the surface of his subject. He slowly gatherred many of his students into this enterprise, and they eventually wrote a collection of 26 books, to catalog the history of Chinese discovery. Myth and Misrepresentation It leaves one speechless to learn the vast extent of things invented by the Chinese many hundreds of years, and often several millennia, before they appeared in the West.

@striker44 If you are among the best and brightest Indians then how come you don’t know this? 👇 IP Theft Is What Once Helped Make America Great That was certainly the case for the United States. The practice of grabbing intellectual property was a staple of U.S. economic strategy since the outset of the nation’s founding. The play Hamilton has brought new and deserved respect to the first secretary of the treasury. But his many economic achievements should not blind us to the fact that theft of intellectual property was a linchpin of his manufacturing strategy. RealClearMarkets

Why is that? Your Asian Americans are the highest educated. But then the recent Harvard case outlines the discrimination if not the outright racism by your so called bleeding heart progressive left elite
