There are many problems with affirmative action. The biggest problem with it is reverse discrimination. What sense does it make to take favoritism over one group or another? Does it really solve anything? I've always thought the best person should be picked, whether it is for a job, college admission or anything else. Why should a company hire someone who is not going to be as profitable as someone with higher skills? It makes no sense to tell someone, or a company, that they have to hire to meet a quota for a minority. Again, you get into reverse discrimination, and it doesn't make sense to discriminate now, to make up for past wrong doings of some of our ancestors. .
What is wrong with Reverse Discrimination? There are so many problems with affirmative action in its current form. The very meaning seems to be obviously wrong. It doesn't seem to be helping anyone, not even the people it was intended to help. No one should be chosen or not chosen because of color, race, creed, or religion. Take the best person for the "job". We are not equal. Some people are better at things than others. Most people can except this. Should there be more Anglo's playing basketball even though they"re not as good as players. No. However, there is always some bleeding heart liberal wanting to try to make everything right for everyone. It's impossible to make everything right for everyone. The very thought of it is asinine! You can't show favoritism to one group without putting another group at a disadvantage. It's just that simple. It can't be done. .
One night a bunch of me and my friends are just parting together and I ask one of them who is African-American, what does he likes to be called? I say to him, " do you prefer to be called black, or African American? " He responds to my question by saying, "Kacey, just call me Foster man." It was such a simple response it, caught be off guard.
