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. 

>>31
>>30 here, I think you are a troll. You cannot seriously have overlooked the fact that race is an irrelevant demographic.

1: Whites who are not racist would be penalised for being racist.
2: Not all blacks and whites have had exactly the same priviledges.
2a: If a black has been underpriviledged due to racism then any non-racial affirmative action program could easily compensate him/her on the basis of discrimination. You don't need institutional racism to stop discrimination.

You can have a few welfare programs if you want, I understand, but if you want to drag race into the equation you can fuck off.
