  3. Hey folks

     

    I don't have a problem with Affirmative Action it self perse but the way it is set up. I don't think this program is effective as it should be or as succesfull. They need to overhaul the program, make radical changes than would it have a chance to make a difference. Giving points because you're black doesn't do anything for the poor and the vulnerable. Thats why most who benefit from it now are rich conservative blacks and other minorities. Points should be based on more than one criteria, like economical status, family(1st generation?), cultural background etc.

     

    The other problem is once minorities graduate, they are not getting jobs/salaries they deserve. A big corporation hires one minority and that satisfies their affirmative action requirement so they quit hiring other minority and return business as usuall of loading whites to all other openings. On this front, the program need to be expanded as to require companies to hire more or equel to the percentage of customers/clients the company has from certain groub or background. For example, if 20 percent of company customers/clients are blacks than their workforce should be by the same amount or close to.

     

    Thats the only way to make sure, we won't need Affirmative Action in 30-50yrs from now. Or they can keep it the way it is and allow whites to merely satisfy us at minimum and wonder why we still make up majority of the ghettos. if they(gov.) are unwilling to make the changes to make it more affective, they should just take it away. They just want to seem like they are doing something to correct historical injustices, but all they are doing is really nothing :mad: .
