Not enough to make it worth violating the rights of everyone else. I want to be judged on my MERITS, not on the color of my skin. You libs out there don't seem to grasp this basic concept: the government's job is NOT to eliminate existing unfairness. The government's duty is to ensure basic rights, and treat everyone fairly itself. Beyond that, what I do is not any of its, or your, business. The basis of AA, the basis of "progressive" tax schemes, the basis of "slavery reperations", is always the idea that certain people need to be treated differently to obtain the same result. Well, fellas, that's called communism, and it don't work. Deal with it. Yeah, I'm whining that I'm not being treated fairly. You know why? Because I'M NOT! Look at it this way: Say my grandfather owned a business. Say he needs someone to do a job. Say a black man and a white man apply for this job, and that the black man is far more qualified. Yet, my grandfather hires the white man, simply because of his race. This would be called racism, no? Now, say the tables are reversed. I'm applying for a job, for which I am well-qualified. A black person, not nearly as qualified, applies for the same job. The black person gets the job, simply because of his race. It's the EXACT SAME SITUATION, so why would you not call this racism as well? [/QB][/QUOTE]
