Maybe because India has (or used to have until the 80's)
excellent free public education for everyone ?
And even today, has the third largest number of University
students in the World ? And entrance is by exam, not $$$$ or sports
scholarships ?
So even poor geniuses had a chance ?

Fifty years ago when I was in Engineering school, there were a lot of
Indians and Pakistani's. I surmised it was because they come from
countries where English was the official or simi-official language.
That made student-visas to U.S. colleges easy to get; and most of them
studied engineering, and sciences because it wasn't language oriented.
When they graduated, it was back to India/Paki unless they could get
H1B visa's in technology companies, which let to permanent
citizenship. That's what they wanted. They didn't want to go back and
I didn't blame them.

As part of my job working for a large electric power utility, I had to
inspect the facilities of large contractors that were bidding for
major projects. The engineering sections of major contractors were
about 75% Indian/Packi because they were willing to work cheap so they
could get permanent employment and the coveted H1B visas which let to
permanent residency and citizenship.

I'm not clear if Corliss is a Brit or a Yank.

If he's a Yank, the answer to his question "Why are so many CEOs of
leading technology companies Indian?" is clear - they [Indians] are
smarter than Yanks and better at engineering and business.

If he is a Brit, you better have that briyani and beer before Brexit.

Not that liberalism need involve the same qualifications of hard

That people from the COUNTRY of India are taking over the tech industry
in the United States.

Explain to me exactly what RACE it is that I'm supposedly denigrating.
India is a country composed of people from MANY ethnicities:

https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/biggest-ethnic-groups-in-india.html

This reminds me of Jewish people labeling those who are anti-Hebrew as
being "racist". Last I heard, Hebrews are members of a religion, not a race.

It's up to you who are calling me a "racist" to explain just exactly WHY
you're doing so.

Yes, but that has nothing to do with his ethnicity or (more to the
point) national origin. Regardless:

"Ajit Varadaraj Pai (/əˈdʒiːt ˈpaɪ/;[1] born January 10, 1973) is a
telecommunications director who serves as the Chairman of the United
States Federal Communications Commission (FCC). *He is the first Indian
American to hold the office*. He has served in various positions at the
FCC since being appointed to the commission by *President Barack Obama*
in May 2012, at the recommendation of Mitch McConnell. He was confirmed
unanimously by the United States Senate on May 7, 2012, and was sworn in
on May 14, 2012, for a five-year term."

Full quote is:

"Ajit Pai was born on January 10, 1973, in Buffalo, New York, and grew

up in Parsons, Kansas. His parents are Konkani immigrants from India:
Varadaraj Pai, a urologist, and Radha Pai, an anesthesiologist. Both of
his parents moved to the US in 1971 and were physicians at the county
hospital."

Nice explanation, H-Man. And thanks for not giving a knee-jerk
"RACIST!!!" reaction like so many others responding to this thread did.

I guess when a person is culturally influenced either by directly being
brought up in an overpopulated area or being raised by parents who were,
then they have a drive to compete that people raised in another,
less-competitive environment lack. Makes sense to me.

Still, I hate what Satya Nadella has done by directing the development
of Windows 10 and what Ajit Pai has done regarding Net Neutrality.

You are the one that first used the word "racist" in response
to a post made by MikeS.

OTOH you are correct in that racism does not apply here. The
word biggot would be more accurate.

But, in the real world there are questions that are much more
important. For example, how/why are Muslims being elected or
appointed to government positions when their beliefs and laws
are in direct conflict with the US Constitution? That should
worry you more than who is manning the call centers.

An idea can NEVER conflict with freedom.
"Hey, you, stop thinking about that or we'll ship you to
Guantanamo and torture you"
What on earth do you mean, that the US is no longer free ?

[Wildman]

Come on, you are not that stupid. People taking a oath to
uphold the US Constitution when their religious beliefs are
in direct conflict with it. You don't see that as a problem?

The people in the US are free to practice any religion they
choose within the confines of existing law. Beheading infidels
and underminding the Constitution are still considered illegal,
so far.

I'm getting lost. I thought we were talking about creepy Indians. Most
Indians are Hindus. Where did the Muslim bit come from? Is it because
they have a similar permanent suntan? If it's a suntan issue I would be
a Muslim for several months of the year. Anyhow, I thought the first
amendment guaranteed freedom of religion so how does that conflict with
the constitution. The call centres remark... like whoosh over the top of

Well then, YOU or MIKE can tell me what he meant. Seems pretty obvious
to me, and probably to anybody who is reading this thread, though.

"Manning the call centers"? The men I referred to are doing far more
than that. Perhaps you didn't read the OP clearly enough.

**Some** Muslims interpret & distort the basic tenets of Islam, just
as some Christians play fast & loose with their reading of the
Christian bible. You just state flatly that Muslim belief in general
conflicts with and [underminds] (sic) the US Constitution, and you
don't explain how.
Sounds to me like someone who just 'doesn't like 'em or trust 'em,
even though many have served in the US military with honor and behave
decently.

It is clear you have never read the Quran or the US Constitution.
The Christians I know do not pick and choose the parts of the
Bible they want to believe. Do you believe there are Muslims
that pick and choose the parts of the Quran they believe?

"The Ten Commandments, are a set of biblical principles relating to
ethics and worship, which play a fundamental role in Christianity.
"Thou shalt not kill" is probably the most important one."

Sorry I mentioned the Bible. Didn't think you hated it so

I mean the way you choose to deny what is plainly self evident is
breathtaking.

I suspect that you know a pretty narrow selection of Christians. It
is very easy to show that many DO pick & choose which parts of the
Bible to follow and believe. Not only that, they pick & choose which
translation of which version to begin with. The grouping and selection
of what books are included is quite a long story of politics and
culture as well as religion. The scholars selected by King James to do
a 'definitive' Bible had directives to emphasize certain things...and
to NOT include various manuscripts that many modern scholars think
should have been chosen.
As to Muslims... of course some DO interpret the Quran to suit what
they wish to believe... and Islam doesn't have quite the direct lines
of authority that most Christian religions do. There is nothing quite
equivalent to the Pope... and the process of teaching Imams and
'certifying' them varies a lot in different sects of Islam....
"The best known split, into Sunni Islam, Shia Islam, and
Kharijites, was mainly political at first but eventually acquired
theological and juridical dimensions."
Even today Sunnis and Shiites differ over very significant beliefs
and often engage in violence, even as the read the same Quran.
...and I HAVE read the US Constitution and parts of the Quran. Like
the Bible, many parts of the Quran are, to say the least, poetic and
ambiguous....

– origin Old English, via ecclesiastical Latin from ecclesiastical
Greek papas ‘bishop, patriarch’, variant of Greek pappas ‘father’.

Depends, since it's more or less magnitude. The followers of a
religious prophet, Muhammad, didn't occur for a magnitude of the
Greco-Roman foundation, incidental to religiosity, but functionally a
business of empire building;- Conversely religiosity, in some
instances an overlap, assumes an incident Islamic empire state from a
reserve as much to say of cultural isolation from the West.

The pope is simply equivalent to a play upon imperator, a prevailing
state of Christianus more or less to lend to deification on earthlier
terms, as it ensues forth to clasp at the hem of a tattered succession
of the Republic ceded Augustus.

“Deserts possess a particular magic, since they have exhausted their
own futures, and are thus free of time. Anything erected there, a
city, a pyramid, a motel, stands outside time. It's no coincidence
that religious leaders emerge from the desert. Modern shopping malls
have much the same function. A future Rimbaud, Van Gogh or Adolf
Hitler will emerge from their timeless wastes.”

How many lobotomies have you had? None of that

70 million American males have been subjected to Male Genital

It's a human rights violation.

Is it not?

It's really creepy. Is it not?

A lobotomy, or even multiple lobotomies won't work. There will
still be enough neurons left in the spinal chord and tissues to
"think" like a bible-thumper.
Maybe that Ponk-Kong-Bam nutcase from north somewhere or other
has the "cure" for absolute stupidity. Lets see if it works.

If you have any evidence to support that claim, you should
contact Meuller. He has been up Trump's ass for two years
and hasn't found anything.
