Q4 Was it racism that has caused the following statistics?
"Asian Americans have only 55% of the chance to rise to the
top rank in the private Industries (1.9 million AsAm workers),
41% of the chance in the universities (70,000 AsAm workers),
and 30% the chance in the Federal government (86,000
AsAm workers), as compared with that of an average Am.
worker in the same positions i.e. THE NATIONAL AVERAGE. "
Q1 Who will benefit?
When AsAm's chance to rise to the top equals that of the national
average, then
(a) In "private industries," 130,500 ADDITIONAL AsAms will
be promoted to "officials and managers". An additional 1.8
million will benefit knowing that they will enjoy equal
opportunity to rise to the top starting from then on.
(b) In "universities," 4889 additional AsAms will be promoted to
administrators; 70,000 will benefit in future chance for
promotions.
(c) In the Fed. Gov. 240 additional AsAms will be promoted to the
SES rank; 80,000 will benefit in future chance of promotions.
Another 11 million AsAms will benefit indirectly because a rising tide
raises all ships. To understand how the above numbers are attained, visit

indirectly. Future generations of AsAms will benefit. America will
benefit. In extending equal opportunity in workplaces to AsAms, America

Q3 Is 80-20 picking on Labor Secretary Elaine Chao?
NO, not at all! Exec. Order 11246 specifically states that the
enforcement of EO 11246 is the responsibility of the Labor Department, which
is under the administration of Sec. Chao. So if we want EO 11234 enforced
on our behalf, we must communicate with or appeal to Sec. Chao.
As a public servant, she has the OBLIGATION to
EITHER point out 80-20 is in error in its understanding of the government
data OR go to bat for AsAms by enforcing EO 11246.
Q4 Was it racism that has caused the following statistics?
Race is not the issue. Any group in America that doesn't have the
"group political clout" has gotten, is getting and will get discriminated.
That was evident in American history in the treatment of the Irish, Polish,
and Italians when they first immigrated to the USA. That was also clear in
seeing how Jews, women, African Americans, gays, & Hispanics were treated
then and now. Our lack of GROUP political clout is why we suffered and
still suffer discrimination!
