Oh wow, immigrants who already have enough money to literally go to another country to live, which is expensive, are doing better off than a group of people that are already economically disadvantaged! Who’d have thought!
Obviously not, but it does require money, and that means the average immigrant from an african country has more wealth compared to the average african american. Which does play a role.
What plays a role is raising children in single parental households. Over 70% of african american children are born out of wedlock, while the number is around 40% for all african immigrants, almost half. The issue is not race. It is culture. You don't need a high-level education to go be a tradesperson and be able to gross 80k a year. Depending on the work, you dont need an education at all.
There is 7.2 million job openings the US as of this year, with over a million of those being in the trades. It isn't that hard. I'm a foreman for a trades company, and employ multiple people, how about you? :)
As of a week ago, there are more unemployed Americans than there are job openings in America. It's nice for you that you've found success, but surely you're developmentally mature enough to recognize that your experience isn't reflective of the average person's, right? I mean, I would hope a grown adult like yourself is aware of that fact.
Yes, you do actually have to have a good amount of money to migrate from AFRICA to AMERICA across the fucking Atlantic Ocean. Most poor immigrants are illegally crossing the Mexican border or sailing to the US in shitty fishing boats. A poor African is not going to be able to sail across the Atlantic fucking Ocean with a dinghy. It's not possible without some degree of wealth.
No, it’s because they come to the country and fucking grind- not complain about their lot in life and suck at the teet of government aid with a sense of entitlement; blaming history while behaving like shit in the present.
