What is next? How about diversity based surgeons.

“Federal Aviation Administration undermined a skills-based test to help select air traffic controllers in an effort to promote workforce diversity.”

Does that explain why there have been so many close encounters involving aircraft the last couple of years?

Work force diversity, based on demographics alone, is an unattainable goal and a fool’s errand. Nothing beats merit, no matter where it is found. But to select randomly, in the hope or wish that the selected candidate will somehow rise to the occasion because the responsibility is thrust upon him or her, is betting of massive failure.

On the job is no place to winnow out the highly incompetent. Or even the marginal applicant. The best of the best is an absolute essential in a high-pressure position.

One of the things most people miss with DEI strategy is one of the plums for the deep state. The hiring of mediocre people results less production which means more hiring to offset the drop. Almost all government workers are dues paying union members. More dues mean more money for the unions/democrats. The stupid Republicans should be shrinking government instead of playing along with the dems.

Srednik highly recommends Thomas Sowell’s WHITE LIBERALS AND BLACK REDNECKS and his INSIDE AMERICAN EDUCATION for analysis of the preposterous notion that some Americans are not smart enough to succeed. He contends quotas hurt minorities. Srednik agrees wholeheartedly. It is very hard work to get qualified at something. If one’s education was inadequate in that area, then the age-old way of earning things — hard work, and more hard work is the way to achieve it. Anything worth having is worth working hard to get. Signaling to some, through a quota, that they aren’t smart enough to get the reward on their own is degrading and dehumanizing.

FTA: concluded that minority candidates were hindered by the cognitive test.

In short they could not think straight!
Just what you do not want in a air traffic controller.

That is an airplane.
Candidate: It looks like a bird to me.

In December 2013, thousands of students who had participated in the FAA’s Collegiate Training Initiative (CTI) - a program specifically designed to prepare individuals to become Air Traffic Control Specialists - were informed that their previous scores on a cognitive and skills-based test - known as the AT-SAT - would be discounted.

Instead, these students would have to pass a biographical survey before retaking the cognitive portion of the test.

This race-based scoring is racism and anti-white.
