I'm against Affirmative Action but, as whites become more of a minority, smart businesses will find ways to reach out to other segments of our society in order to hire and retain the best workers. It's already underway with or without government mandates.
Cal Thomas, whom I normally agree with, paints too broadly here. Yes, I'd like to see immigration reduced, particularly illegal immigration, but you must also accept that the doors have been swung open long enough for foreigners to arrive here and create their own enclaves where they openly speak and act as they did in their old countries - something most Jews, Poles, Italians, Chinese, Russians, Germans and Slavs also did when they first came here a century ago. The only thing that has changed is our government has tried to be more accommodating of people who have yet to assimilate.
I'd rather that some things like the right to vote and the right to drive be limited to those with a working knowledge of our language but some of the anti-immigration hysteria on this and other forums is counterproductive to a meaningful and workable solution.
