Nobody is debating honest work. But do you REALLY believe that the playing field is 100% equal?

In legal terms, the playing field is now slanted towards certain favored minorities.

And the playing field has
ALWAYS been slanted toward whites, so if it is slanted now towards "minorites", why is it such a problem now? I know the answer to that, but I'm curious as to what your answer might be.

conversations about race/cultures, etc. It's not about being a victim...truth is spoken when "minorities" talk about hitting the "glass ceiling" on the job because of race or gender, it's not a "myth" when "minorities" get turned down for bank loans and their credit is just as good as their white counterparts, and so on.

Ah. So for every "minority" passed over for promotion because of their minority status, a white male at a different job in a different company will be passed over for promotion because of his non-minority status. For every minority turned down for a bank loan because they're a minority, a white man applying at a different bank will be turned down because he's a white man.

Say what? If I get turned down for a loan, somebody white will too??? LMAO, okaaayyyy.....

That's affirmative action for you. And if you don't understand why you don't have to be a racist to object to it, there's no hope for you.

Oh there's plenty of hope for me...that's not up to
YOU to decide anyway, so don't worry about it.
