No, affirmative action does not create a more equal society. It is a racist policy because it says to minorities "You're not capable of competing on an equal footing with white males, so we'll make it easier for you by giving you special preferences and by letting you meet a lower standard than white males."
| I can agree with you here about how it is a rascist society. I think you would say that any group that is established for the benefit of a certain race is indeed rascist. Issues of sex aside, should any legislation or group of this nature be allowed? Should there be programs that give benefits exclusively to racial minorities?
And i do realize how it works so that first line shouldn't be read as though i agree with it necessarily, it is just to start the topic.
"By three methods we may learn wisdom:
First, by reflection, which is noblest;
Second, by imitation, which is easiest;
and third by experience, which is the bitterest."
