It was illegal, immoral and doomed to failure from the get-go. Nobody owed anybody anything. The laws were effective from date of enactment, not back in history. There are no “remedies” for the past. And even if so, one would have to subtract the fair values of disproportionate crime, welfare takings, etc. Not to mention “but for” discrimination, they’d be residing in Africa, not America. After all the capture and boat ride over were also acts of discrimination. Did the racism start when the boats hit shore?
A charade on White America, hard workers, great students, and now Asians. Couched in “positive” language (see e.g. pro-abortion = “choice”) The hypocrites who advocate and run these programs never give up their own positions or applications of them or their Lil Darlins, do they?
The pandering is obvious. The discomfort equally so. They wouldn’t dare admit inferior students unless it was politically/financially expedient.
This crap should have been screamed out of existence from the first mention of the hypocrisy. Now we see what pandering has created, a whole host of “Gimmes” who don’t and won’t work for what they want. This “all we want is a chance” from the 60s was nothing more than a charade, a political and financial payoff.
Nothing ever satisfies them, witness today. The ghetto’s still the ghetto, The Great Society is an utter failure and look at the divisiveness, riots, and hateful political rhetoric.
Even the sainted Martin Luther King Jr. was against Affirmative Action—and only reluctantly agreed if it would last but 10 years—it should have been banned in 1973. BUT the race industry and Rich Race bater Reverands need it to live in their mansions and fly their jets.
