I agree. It should be based on class and need.

We have had 40 years of racial preference in higher ed admissions, in favor of blacks, for close to two generations. Is it time to base It on socio-economic family status rather than skin color? Three points for consideration:
1) For activist blacks and self-loathing whites who will claim this will hurt black kids’ opportunities, bear in mind that blacks are, as a group, poorer than whites and would thus still garner a disproportionate share of the benefit.
2) Why should Johnny, the son of a dentist and a teacher (I use this example because the black couple who lived across the street when I was a teen were a dentist and a teacher), have admissions standards lowered for him because of his skin color, when he went to school in an affluent area and whose parents could pay for tutoring, and who didn’t need an after-school job and thus could devote all his time to study?
3) Conversely, why should the poor white boy who grew up in a fourth-floor walk-up in Brooklyn, who had to go straight from school to his part-time job to help his family put food on the table and thus had less free time for study, but who STILL - despite this - managed to have better grades and scores than Johnny (above), lose out his college slot to a less-qualified black kid because of skin color?
Wouldn‘t it be more fair to base affirmative action on family SES than skin color?
Affirmative action should be based on class, not race
Focusing on the disadvantaged of all races is fairer and more appealing, writes Richard Kahlenberg, a scholarwww.economist.com
As I recall, you’re a leftist and thus it’s understandable you’d want to eliminate laws and police.Why base it on economic status?
Remove all government protections, laws, police.
Let the last man standing get it all!

1) Where would the government get the money for that? If we print even more, we would drive inflation even higher.Or, you know, we could just make college for anyone who has some aptitude free which will incentivize colleges to expand capacity
That GD faggot bastard is so incompetent. Mayor of a shit hole town and lost everything he ran for
Every time I see that faggot I see him sucking a dick
Progs have had opportunities to change this if Repubs would not. As you see plainly, Joe talks about being from the streets and is a peasant, but he hobnobs with the wealthy.
Well conservatives already think education is meaningless so who really cares what they think.1) Where would the government get the money for that? If we print even more, we would drive inflation even higher.
2) Colleges, knowing the government will pay, will be incentivized to expand the definition of “aptitude” and let in every Tom, Dick, and Harry in order to get all those government payments - and lower the caliber of college to the high school level, rendering it meaningless.
Since when do conservatives think education is meaningless? That’s why they want to get rid of all the nonsense they teach in schools, and get back to academic basics.Well conservatives already think education is meaningless so who really cares what they think.
It should be outlawed completely...it's a clear violation of the US Constitution, even if it had good intentions, it still violates the equal protection clause, and discriminates against people The Govt should not be in the discrimination businessWe have had 40 years of racial preference in higher ed admissions, in favor of blacks, for close to two generations.

Yes, that’s another way to do it: have NO admissions bias at all. Let the brightest, motivated, most capable kids get into the educational programs of their choice, and have needs-based tuition assistance available for the bright poor kids who got in under their own merits, but don’t have the money.It should be outlawed completely...it's a clear violation of the US Constitution, even if it had good intentions, it still violates the equal protection clause, and discriminates against people The Govt should not be in the discrimination business
But you are not asking while they have abilities. They are controlling a massive government and are not that good. The video of Buttigieg in an SUV taking a bike out of it tells you everything. Trump tells you fast food and eats it.I didn't ask about whether he is competent. I was referring to your post saying:
"look at all the incompetents like Harris and Buttaplug who are the face of Affirmative Action
Buttplugug because he is a filthy rotten dirty bottom and Harris because she is a Schvartze and female"
