When socialists get into power in the USA, this will be the norm and govmt agencies will NO LONGER HIDE IT!!

From the posts on this thread either your countrymen arn't looking the right way , are blind or just choose to ignore what has happened to the USA . It's called AFFIRMATIVE ACTION Personally I like the term , reverse discrimination . When you say "When socialists get into power in the USA", what do you mean by "when"?

In a statement released in 1981 by the United States Commission on Civil Rights, Jack P. Hartog, who directed the project, said: Only if discrimination were nothing more than the misguided acts of a few prejudiced individuals would affirmative action plans be "reverse discrimination." Only if today's society were operating fairly toward minorities and women would measures that take race, sex, and national origin into account be "preferential treatment." Only if discrimination were securely placed in a well-distant past would affirmative action be an unneeded and drastic remedy.

What the commission failed to realize was that there are thousands of white males who are not discriminating yet are being punished because of those who do. The Northern Natural Gas Company of Omaha, Nebraska, was forced by the government to release sixty-five white male workers to make room for minority employees in 1977 (Nebraska Advisory Committee 40). Five major Omaha corporations reported that the number of white managers fell 25% in 1969 due to restrictions put on them when affirmative action was adopted (Nebraska Advisory Committee 27). You ask, "What did these white males do to bring about their termination?" The only crime that they were guilty of was being white. This hardly seems fair to punish so many innocent men for the crimes of a relative few.

It is the ugly, revolting spectre of racism, pure and simple. They may not hate whites the way that racists hated blacks, but the practical consequence is the same.
