It might be helpful to remember that historically, most people who came to America as a chance to start over and leave the past behind. People who were doing well usually didn't migrate to the US. In my family, the men's of "We were kicked around until we came here, then we did well," is very strong. So much so, that I'm the first one to travel internationally, except for military service.

They just came to a place with more headroom. So, a lot of Indians are not eager to get rid of their cultural identities as fast as many European immigrants.
