Hasn’t affirmative action tilted the balance against white people in some areas?

For example, I have often had to deal with governmental offices in San Diego. And I have seldom encountered any white men working in such offices.

Anecdotal evidence is that proportionally few white men work for the post office e, at least in my area.

We can all share anecdotes about these matters.

This writer should investigate why, after decades of affirmative action, after decades of having smashed down the barriers of discrimination which once existed, why it is, that critical masses of her own black community are still grappling with poverty and related issues in their lives.

White males are grossly under represented in government offices, I’ve noticed the same thing. My Post Office had one, he retired, now they have none.

In NY State, the first 30% of state budget money is earmarked for minorities! A huge effin number, that whites need not apply.

This idiot does not know what she is talking about.

Years ago I applied for an IT job at a large city in Southern California.

100’s of people took the exam. Before I even started they had a sign posted. +10 Points for being ex-military, +10 for being a woman, +10 for being a minority. So I was already 30 points down before even starting the test.

3 years later they called me in for an interview and told me that I had actually scored the highest in the group but that they had to hire others first. Since those people had 3 years of experience they would be my boss and how did I feel about that.

I couldn’t hide the body language so I didn’t get the job.

At the time I really needed the job as the job I was working at had an unethical owner.

Here in my part of South Carolina which is nearly half and half black and white you can go into any government office and see that the vast majority of jobs are filled by blacks yet some of them, not all, still claim that whites are given preference in hiring. NOTHING could be further from reality. There is vastly more black racism here than white racism.
