That's what I'm asking. If you want to give help to the have-nots then why would you have a system based on race where kids from wealthy black families have an advantage over poor people of other races I'm agreeing with you. Why has such a system not been proposed? Because Democrats need the black and hispanic vote and that kind of move would appear like a betrayal. A white high school droop out has the same chance of getting a job as black kid with college. A white criminal has the same chance of getting a job as black guy with no record if everything else is even. YOU HAVE THE ADVANTAGE ALL READY. Is this because of racism or simply because there are more white applicants by virtue of being majority? I don't believe that given a choice between a drop out and a college grad that an employer would risk the profitability of a company to pick the white guy. Is it possible you're looking at overall statistics and extrapolating results that aren't there? <cite>BWLurker posted [p:904425414] in Trump Admi...
