I was a child of poor Asian immigrants. My parents came here for a better life. Same with DH’s family. DH and I did well in school and professionally. Recently there has been a wave of extremely wealthy Asians. They were not as common when I was a kid. These are people who will buy a $5m home cash without blinking. They have money and brains. So you now have the smart Asian Americans like my kids, the kids of poor Asian immigrants (like me and Dh when we were kids) and now the really smart rich immigrant kids.[/quote]

So true.  Most asian immigrants are wealthy these days.  Very different from the 80's/90's.  [/quote]

Not anymore.   The former middle class is doing poorly and cannot make enough money to survive.  Much like most illegal immigrants.

Here’s an excerpt from an article from Washington Post last month .

“…this is the largest wave of illegal border crossings by Chinese immigrants in history — part of a wider influx that is also bringing record numbers of migrants from South America, India, Turkey and an array of African nations. Many are guided by global smuggling networks that seek to exploit the dysfunctional U.S. asylum system.
U.S. authorities have encountered more than 55,000 Chinese migrants crossing illegally from Mexico during the past 18 months, primarily in the rugged desert mountains east of San Diego — up from 3,813 in 2022. It is the last stage of the journey known in Chinese as zouxian — “walking the line.””

Very interesting article on what’s going on in China right now.  It doesn’t include information on  the ghettos that are still holding Muslims against their will.  [/quote]
