Affirmative Action Banned!

Name: Anonymous 2006-11-09 21:25

My state (Michigan) has wisely followed in the foosteps of California and banned racist/sexist affirmative action programs in Michigan, that would have discriminated against people based on nothing but their gender or the color of their skin, all in the name of promoting equality.  

It passed by a pretty wide margin 58% - 42% of the vote.. or, another way of looking at it: 

2,137,574  ---  YES on stopping AA
1,552,459  ---  NO on stopping AA

Hopefully this'll spread like wildfire throughout the rest of the states.

Cognitive psychology = an analysis of the decisions individuals make based on what they are exposed to. If they are exposed to socialist communismity stimuli, the stimuli's effects are still based on it's effects on the individual. Sociology (before the pseudo-science of modern-sociology at least) has always been about how INDIVIDUALS interact. Considerring groups to be collective entities is a logical fallacy and is as blunt and pointless as considerring molecules to not exist. Especially if you are trying to do something as complex as stop discrimination or produce electricity conducting plastics.
