Should have let Lincoln have his way.
At this point I see no other option than make sure every citizen has the same rights as every other citizen, no more and no less.
American blacks would go nuts for sure if the government abolished Affirmative Action. They wouldn't tolerate equality.
That's a big problem. Once you give someone something they think of that welfare or preference as property they own. It will be bloody when those $200+ tennis shoes aren't to be furnished to them or available to be stolen anymore. Really bloody. Maybe the Yankees will get most of it.
It's not so much the free money that's damaging to society. The big problem caused by Affirmative Action is lesser qualified blacks getting jobs ahead of better qualified whites in order to meet Affirmative Action quotas.
That's not equality. That's why I said that blacks wouldn't tolerate equality. They've had two generations of preferential treatment and they now feel entitled to it.
They're out in the streets rioting right this minute and they've been catered to for more than a half century.
They just don't fit. Nobody can do anything to make them fit.
It is what it is.
