I was born a poor white child.
When the time came, there was no money for higher education. If I was a minority I could have gotten near a full ride.
Affirmative action in todays society is complete BULLSHIT, like it was 20 years ago. It boils my blood to think that a poor (financially challenged) child in todays society would get overlooked because of his/her caucasioness.

Speak your reasons please. Remember that whitey will BE the minority in just a few short decades. Will whitey be afforded the benefits of affirmative action?
