Your Post is correct of course.
What they are admitting is that blacks would not be hired anywhere if not for affirmative action and forced actions by Government.
The question is why? Is there a reason?
Why do we need affirmative Action?
I believe we all know the reason and it isn’t because of discrimination.
It is because of a record of showing up late, not knowledgeable, too much sick time, too many grandmothers dying and they don’t show up for work, productivity lapses, sloppy performance, poor showings on skill tests, whining.
Once hired an impossibility to get rid of the loads.
Bring forth a man/woman with job skills good performance, a good attitude, and they are in demand. No matter what their color.
Exactly. All those reasons, added to the threat of being sued if an employer fires a black person for the most legitimate reasons. Who would want that hanging over their head so that they couldn’t rid themselves of a bad employee?
So employers are caught in a bind as a result of this blackmail. Forced to hire minority employees who may not be equal to the task, and unable to get rid of them when that turns out to be the case.
