A key part of President Obama’s legacy will be the fed’s unprecedented collection of sensitive data on Americans by race. The government is prying into our most personal information at the most local levels, all for the purpose of “racial and economic justice.”
Unbeknown to most Americans, Obama’s racial bean counters are furiously mining data on their health, home loans, credit cards, places of work, neighborhoods, even how their kids are disciplined in school — all to document “inequalities” between minorities and whites.
This Orwellian-style stockpile of statistics includes a vast and permanent network of discrimination databases, which Obama already is using to make “disparate impact” cases against: banks that don’t make enough prime loans to minorities; schools that suspend too many blacks; cities that don’t offer enough Section 8 and other low-income housing for minorities; and employers who turn down African-Americans for jobs due to criminal backgrounds.
Big Brother Barack wants the databases operational before he leaves office, and much of the data in them will be posted online.
So civil-rights attorneys and urban activist groups will be able to exploit them to show patterns of “racial disparities” and “segregation,” even if no other evidence of discrimination exists.

Isn’t it a terrible coincidence? I did the same thing.
and Who didn’t see This coming
And I don’t know about “bean counters” either. Insensitive to Mexicans! ;)
{1) The ascribed group over the individual citizen The key political unit is not the individual citizen, who forms voluntary associations and works with fellow citizens regardless of race, sex, or national origin, but the ascriptive group (racial, ethnic, or gender) into which one is born. This emphasis on race, ethnicity, and gender leads to group consciousness and a deemphasis of the individual’s capacity for choice and for transcendence of ascriptive categories, joining with others beyond the confines of social class, tribe, and gender to create a cohesive nation.
Great post, Mustangman!
Time for me to start Self identifying as a black conservative auntie Tabitha....
[ I’m a black lesbian.
you forgot crippled ]
Differently Abled African-American non-Cis-gendered Lesbian Vegan.
[ How interesting. When the census data collectors came around to my house, I’d speak to them in Russian like I couldn’t understand a damn thing they were saying.
When they sent a Russian interpreter around to ask questions, the wife would appear and speak Chinese, like she couldn’t understand a damn thing they were saying.
We had one census taker in tears.
I love screwing with the federal fascist bureaucrats. ]
Next time they darken my door I should speak Klingon and really piss them off...
[ DNA testing will be held from 12 to 7 at the Martin Luther King Center ]
The irony will be lost on the white med students who are giving the tests and hating themselves for their own perceived white privlidge...
[ Well, I’m a Latino lesbian with one eye and one leg,,,,
Plus I’m part Warren Cherokee,,,, ]
That does it.....I think i am I am going to start self-identifying as a Freeking Romulan, and demand that the government pay me to get my ears sharpened in a mechanical rice picker...
You can’t compare numbers of Hispanics to Blacks and determine that there’s a problem - the only reason for gov’t to act is if YT appears to have any advantage whatsoever.
Funny......one would assume that the odd against this happening would be minuscule......but I have it on good account that it is not as rare as first thought. And whenever I hear of such an instance, I am shocked as the very same thing happened to ME!
This worked so well the last time.
First the evil banks were "red-lining."
Then the feds back-stopped loans to unqualified applicants.
Then the housing bubble crashed.
And the banks were blamed for forcing people to take loans they couldn't pay back.
Mean liberals suck.
It's not a Lie...
If you Self-Identify....

So-called minorities, are not interested in equal opportunities anymore. They want equal outcomes. They want the same positions others have worked years to attain via education and job performance. They want to live in the same neighborhoods others have worked long years to afford the down payments for the houses others call home. They want to be given all this and still be looked upon with the same level of respect as those that have sacrificed blood, sweat, years, and tears to attain. All of these are earned with hard work, not given. This is why the marxist-in-chief is doing this...he wants to be responsible for the largest redstribution of wealth in world history or to set the stage for CW II.
Be careful for what is set in motion...the outcome may not be what was intended or desired.
Is a that really necessary? Go to any government office in any metro area and you will have your answer. Many of those that glom onto goverment jobs do so because they do not posses the skills needed to survive in the private sector.
>>Sick and weird read, right?
Not really. Hindsight is always 20/20. We know what happened in Nazi Germany as history. When IBM started helping Germany in 1933, no one knew what Hitler’s regime would turn into. I use Siemens PLCs and HMIs in my work. Siemens sold the same PLCs and HMIs to Iran for their centrifuge program. One day, after Iran uses their first nuclear weapon on someone, will someone write an article on how Siemens helped Iran build their bomb that obliterated a city? Probably.
But, the thing about free markets is that business is business and a customer is a customer. Its only in places where the free market has failed that you see flags being pulled off the market because some group demands it.
Words to live by!
never honestly fill out any race form.
Everytime I fill out a job application, I am something different.
A database of useless information is useless.
