Blacks are only 25% of the population in Houston, but they get everything they demand from city hall, which exists to provide handouts to blacks and blacks alone. The city employment system down here is so screwed up with affirmative action that any minority, or more specifically any black person, can practically walk in off the street and be handed a job. Comparatively, persons of other "non-perpetual-victimhood" races are at an automatic disadvantage in hiring and in obtaining city contracts because of quotas, pure and simple. Houston literally runs empty city busses at 2 AM on several of the major routes just because it makes jobs that they can fill with recipients of affirmative action, all of whom turn around and vote (some of them more than once) for Lee Brown.
