A.A. helps minorities (depending on ethnicity and gender) and if I found out the only reason I got a job was because I had tits and didn't have a little man in between my legs, I would have to wonder about the companies intergrity. Not to mention that everyone there would know why I got it over John Doe White Man. I don't think that almost everyone at an office knows who applies for a job, their qualifications and thus the person hired for a position is always held to the other candidates by coworkers. So I don't thinK I could work some place like that.
Also, if someone that is a minority does not want to go to college, gets poor grades, doesn't try in school at all, and they get a full ride and goes to college for free does that help anyone? I thought scholarships were supposed to help people that wanted to further their education, not someone who is lazy and just wants a few free years of school. I don't think it is fair because there are people out there that work their butts off and they don't get a free ride. They may get a 4.0 but they have to have apart time job all through college to afford books or whatever. How is that fair?

[/B]How many minorities do you know that have a 1.0 GPA, have a household income of $100,000, go to class once a month, and have a FULL SCHOLARSHIP?
Perhaps you would care to do some surfing on the net for links about affirmative action.I think it would benefit greatly.
