The Great American Casserole

A pot unmelted, under God, indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for all 🇺🇸



Steelman. Data is 1997-2019.






@NotoriousAKG Indians have the lowest rate of unicorn founders of any immigrant group. If we kept total immigration the same, and treated it as a bucket fill optimization problem selecting for unicorn founders, we would have… zero Indians.

Ask what all of these “billion-dollar tech startups” are and it’s an app you’ve never used and/or has objectively made everyone’s lives worse.



U.S. Forest Service law enforcement is now asking for the public’s help identifying a group of Indian nationals seen defacing Cathedral Rock in Sedona, Arizona, a sacred Native American site, with furious Americans demanding their immediate deportation.










Relative to native-born Americans, several countries' immigrants to America have produced vastly greater rates of unicorn founders. In particular, Israel: with shockingly few people in the U.S., Israel is the #2 origin *in total* for foreign Unicorn founders.

@AlexNowrasteh UK, France, Germany & Russia are the only countries below the trend line. They deliver strong founder yield while we accept a smaller % of their population than expected. We are under-accepting skilled immigrants from these high-performing European countries. The data is clear.

Nearly half of the founders of billion-dollar tech startups are immigrants
