Civil Rights? Reverse discrimination ABOUNDS in U.S. federal govt.

The Washington Times ^ | August 8th, 2002 | Paul Craig Roberts

[End The Hypocrisy]

"Now comes an astonishing report from the U.S. Office of Personnel Management: "Annual Report to Congress, Federal Equal Opportunity Recruitment Program, Fiscal Year 2000," released in April 2002. This report to Congress makes brutally clear that despite the "equal opportunity" name of the program, the purpose of the federal program is to make certain there is no equal opportunity for whites in federal employment. The report uses tables and bar charts to make unmistakably clear that federal discrimination against whites goes far beyond merely achieving proportional representation for blacks. In all 22 independent federal agencies and in 16 of 17 federal executive departments, blacks are massively overrepresented."

In Mexico there's a saying: "El pueblo tiene el gobierno que merece". In other words: "The people have the government that they deserve, based on their actions or lack thereof."

Govt is on a self amplifying course and will grow until it consumes all available resources, taps the full credit of the govt and debases the currency. The only recourse for producers is really a strike of the mind. Figure out some way to generate the minimal amount of taxes.

Paul Craig Roberts again? Sigh...

Why not give it a "Soon, white man, we will take your women!" alert?

How does the writer make the facts of the article invalid?

From the FBI website:

What are the qualifications for the Special Agent position? To qualify for training as a Special Agent, an individual must be a US citizen, or a citizen of the Northern Mariana Islands, and have reached his/her 23rd but not 37th birthday. All candidates must possess a valid driver's license and must pass a polygraph examination, a drug test, and a color vision test. Other requirements include uncorrected vision not worse than 20/200 (Snellen) and corrected 20/20 in one eye and not worse than 20/40 in the other eye. Applicants must possess a four-year degree from a college or university accredited by one of the regional or national institutional associations recognized by the United States Secretary of Education.

Pretty soon, the US will be like South Africa is now, where minorities run everything, and whites get stiffed and have their property stolen outright. We need to end "affirmative action" (aka invidious discrimination) NOW, and refuse to vote for any politician that supports it.

I was lucky to retire in 91 before the Clintonists took over.

I have friends still working at DOD

Roberts only tells part of the story
Women were also getting preferential treatment when it comes to promotion

I have a friend fairly high up in the FAA and he is retiring in 4 months
Can't wait to get out because of the PC BS
ROBERTS IS RIGHT

[Nonstatist]

His stats are pretty much right on the money. If you're a white male, you're best off in private industry, especially right out of college. (Unless we're talking State Gov't, maybe). But.. my guess is you already know this to be true.

Actually I mixed in John Galt with Agent Smith's speech from The Matrix-- that bit about expanding until it consumes all available resources.... like a virus....

[taxed2death]

I'm planning to do just that right now. I'm shifting my business all over to mail order.....it's already 2/3rds mail order now. Out of state business is the way to go for now, less of a B.S. state sales tax liability, ya know!, moving to a cheaper part of the country.....I'm gonna be a real Johnny Hayseed and love it too. Earn 5 bucks under what the Gub-mint says is poverty level and proceed to be a COMPLETE DRAIN on the "system" Ain't America great! Sick of payin' for King Jorge tryin' to run the world out of my wallet. 60 Billion here, 137 Billion there.....Last year the da-fense dept "misplaced" 3 trillion dollars.....yup, proud to be an American. Let this B.S. socialist crumble under it's own weight, the sooner the better!

[EBUCK]

Good call. "I've got to get out of this place and the only way to do that..." Great bit of programming..

An ATLAS SHRUGGED bump!

Given who is on the other side in the affirmative action debate, is that REALLY a far-fetched idea?

Mike Tyson, O.J., and Louis Farrakhan come to mind immediately...

43% of the american people voted for clinton and we have been paying mightily ever since. G-d help us.

Bad example. The minorities USED to run everything in SA.

Did a damn sight better job too, apparently.

Last year the da-fense dept "misplaced" 3 trillion dollars

Actually, last year Bushes DoD team discovered that a few trillion were unaccounted for over the last few decades. Give them credit, they actually looked for it. Now what they do to correct it remains to be seen.

[xhrist]

I am a white male...and I truly wonder if the feelings I get when I read about this issue are similiar to those the native americans felt as they watched "there"country taken away from them...thru treaties and legalise...

makes you think whats destined for us....
