Ouch

Affirmative action is "racial justice on the cheap."  Damning:

Bottom line: Race conscious policies consciously discriminate against non-minorities based on their race (regardless of their income), disproportionately help out upper income minorities, and do little/nothing to help lower income minorities– all in the name of achieving “diversity” while simultaneously keeping SAT scores up. “Equal” protection of the laws? Give me a break.

In my high school, all the kids knew affirmative action was BS. Many of the more well-to-do folks were able to claim some minority status, while many of the less-advantaged kids were just white-bread. This isn't ideological, it's more an issue of common sense.
