Forbes just published a piece ranking America’s 250 most successful living immigrants.

Nvidia, Google, AMD, Linux, Git, DoorDash, Zoom, Databricks, Snowflake, Anthropic, Perplexity, Waymo, Supermicro, and many other major companies are tied to founders, CEOs who came from outside the U.S.

America became insanely good at taking global ambition, giving it capital, universities, customers, legal structures, and scale, then letting that mix create companies that reshaped the entire planet.

Jensen Huang, the Taiwan-born CEO of @Nvidia, has championed the role of immigration in American innovation.

“The miracle of Nvidia ... would not be possible without immigration,” he wrote to employees last year.

Huang is featured on the #Forbes250 America’s Most Successful Living Immigrants list.

@Forbes @nvidia Jensen Huang is my age, he understands as well as I do THAT the immigrants of 1970s were completely different than the immigrants of today. None of us can afford to ignored data collected of cheap temporary foreign workers in Canada. The U.S. took in 10x more fake refugees.

@Forbes @nvidia The right immigration, the ones who willing to work hard, assimilates yet keep their root while contribute and put the host countries first. All the Muslims, uneducated, inbred, fraudsters , ungrateful POS, fuck them, kick them out, keep them out

@Forbes @nvidia High quality immigration is great. Parasites who scam the system and engage in illegal activities are not welcome.

@Forbes @nvidia Do not confuse it with illegal mass border invasion by thugs and gangsters.

@Forbes @nvidia Damn, America robbed all our Chinese talents! Humble, honest, loyal — working hardest for least pay with no complaints. Our moral character beats all other immigrants

@Forbes @nvidia Yet America is trying to stop people from coming in. Tell me one thing that has helped The US more than immigration.

@Forbes @nvidia Agree, immigration clearly fuels innovation, and stories like Huang’s prove it. But it needs to be well-managed and skills-focused, not just wide open, so the system actually works for the country. Canada opened the door without building the housing&services to match the system.
