You sound ashamed of your race. We also hold weight politically in the united states and they don't. At all.
And restaraunts and corner stores arent getting them anywhere.
Why do indians own so much damn business? We need to take notes

And restaraunts and corner stores arent getting them anywhere.
it seems like there is a negative stigma associated with local black owned business sometimes. People treat them like there worse than white businesses.
Yeah...there is a reason:
Money is the barrier. And i imagine i could extrappolate data to show that the ratio of black wealth actually out weighs the amount of business we own...
India has that caste system. Either your from the slums, or your family is in the cut deeply; doctors and engineers. So they will have a bunch of wealth to start off with. Although they are very shady as they bring that racism at times into the workplace.When I had this dude for a supervisor for a IT project, he stayed quiet to any emails but was gladly present for this one temp working with a H1B.

That's because they are...sometimes...
I've heard many a complaint about the lack of professionalism of small black businesses in black neighborhoods...
That's not to say the white man's ice is colder...but we have to learn how to run a business...
All in all IMPO...on all of this...if black folks want to become economically viable...they have to do what white folks have been doing for decades....start a small business in their hoods and suck the money out...
If the Indians and Arabs can open up corner stores in our spots... if Eyetalians can open up a pizza joint in our spots, and if the Jews can open up a shyt shack furniture store on our corners and take our money back to their homes and their communities...we should be able to do the same...without anyone bating an eye...fair is fair in my book...
I swear on every thing...that if I ever started a small business...I'd open one dead set in the middle of Bensonhurst with all black employees wearing an apron and a shot gun...and dare one of those gumbas to think twice about opening up their mouthes...and I'd have some black mothafukin' faces on my wall (my reference to Do the Right thing)

Address the wealth gap i've brought up repeatedly and how you suggest that barrier is surpassed.

the "wealth gap" isn't the problem IMO...that's just some renched up political term used by Democrats to get people all riled up come election time...
Personally...if blacks folks learned to maximize the disposable income that they do have in a capitalistic way...we (as a community) would move right along with everyone else...
Like it or not...a lot of blacks are financially illiterate.
Are you sure about that? More than half of Micrososft's employee staff are Indian nowadays.
What? What i am discussing is the fact that the vast majority of first generation immigrants from europe asia and india are coming to the US with enough wealth to start a business. This is THEIR 1%. I am discussing the gap between that wealth and most of black america. I want you to address how you expect black americans enmasse to "start businesses in the hood" when most dont have disposible money on deck to invest.
For the record....Our 1% of black wealth could build 100 businesses each in bombay.
And this:
Doesnt...mean anythinng
Because it's cheaper.. all they do is pitch em pennies.. People on this site bytch and cry but fail to realize the whole existence of a business is to make profit not going on a hiring spree
You guys always complain about blacks do this with their money but fail to recognize there're only two types of people in this world: Buyers and Sellers.

I'm not sure you are making a point...
and...
I think you're simply wrong on my second point...it's easier to ignore the disease and die from it rather to tackle it head on...

the whole idea of immigration is that rich people with money come over to buy stuff, that why that whole give me "your tired, you poor" shiet is nonsense, even mexicans who get pulled out the river, they get with a job and a connect on a place to stay. we came over here with nothing but chains and to this day, they make sure we work hard for every single drop.
And inflate the stock, and when the the stock begins to fall, cash out.
The CEO's get the payday, and 4,000 people get laid off
