i like affirmative action in theory..
i se it as something that could potentially level the playing feild, but in practivce it's not used that way at all. I think it's human nature to be miffed if someone helps another group that you dont belong in. If affirmativbe action was set up to help caucasians.. we wouldnt be having this discussion; but in turn it creates an unnatural balance in the marketplace.
While i would like some of the "behind the scenes racism" to be removed from the workplace, I dont want to be someone's pet monkey because they had to fill a quota.
