Affirmative Action Banned!

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.

The right to work falls into the category of inalienable rights.  If there is racial or gender discrimination in the hiring practices of a corporation or industry, they ARE infringing on the rights of fellow citizens.

You may not agree with the way the government protects the right to work (i.e. affirmative action), but hiring discrimination IS stepping on the rights of those it discriminates against.
