First, Asians face much less racial discrimination in this country.
But the statistic of them earning more is a bit misleading. Many Asians who have come over are coming from countries that are striving. And the Asians who we allow in often come with advanced skills and degrees already. It's the point of the H1-B visa program. So when you're importing hundreds of thousands of programmers who make good money, their median income is going to rise.
The fact we have to import skilled workers is also a sign of what failures we are at investing in our own citizens.
