THEIR ECONOMIES ARE BOOMING. BOOMING. SO, UNLIKE LETS SAY A DECADE AGO, WHERE IMMIGRANTS CAME HERE WITH NO MONEY, WORKED DEGRADING JOBS, OPENED UP STORES, LAUNDROMATS, RESTAURANTS, ETC., NOW THEY ALREADY HAVE WEALTH AND EDUCATION SO THEY CAN EITHER CHOOSE TO STAY THERE IN ASIA (CHINA, INDIA, ETC.) OR COME HERE AND IT WOULD BE EASY FOR EXAMPLE, IF I'M AN EMPLOYER, I'M NOT HIRING SOME HIPPIE WHO TALKS A LOT WITH SOC DEGREE I'D RATHER GO WITH THE INDIAN OR CHINESE WITH THE RELEVANT MAJOR/SCHOOL
