The problem with this country is the entitlement attitude that so many people have. So many people want things given to them for free. We're all spoiled rotten! We take everything for granted and don't appreciate anything. Every breath you take is a gift. Thank your lucky stars you arent lying in a ditch somewhere starving to death. You live in one of the greatest, if not the greatest country in the world. You enjoy prosperity (if you go out and earn it) and freedoms unparalleled in history. I'm sickened by the attitudes I see from young people in our country. They think everything is free and if they don't get what they want they cry about it. They have no concept of what it means to struggle. Most people don't know how to even make food for themselves, or do anything at all themselves for that matter.
White women qualify and benefit from affirmative action. In fact, white women make up approximately 50% of affirmative action participants.

You're not using your brain. The majority of Americans are white so the percentages will be skewed in any measure of anything. what you would need to do is look at the percentage of all white women that are participants, and then compare that with the percentage of all minorities or even each individual group. Compare percentages to percentages. It's simple math smart alec.
You said affirmative action discriminates against Whites, and I pointed out that many Whites qualify for affirmative action.
Good for you. You get a gold star for your summary of our comments. The bottom line is that affirmative action causes someone other than the best candidate to be selected. This is unfair and unamerican. My original comment stands. Affirmative action is discrimination.

Why don't YOU go read some US history? The world is not perfect. "Without darkness there can never be light". This country is founded on fairness, even if we aren't perfect about it. We're the fairest country there has ever been in the history of mankind.
There will always be good and evil in the world regardless of your race creed or color. Countries have militaries to protect from threats abroad, and law enforcement to protect from domestic threats. This is the origin of government.
imagine a tribe of people existing in harmony with the land and each other, building growing loving. Now imagine a hoard of barbarians comes along and kills them and steals or destroys everything they have. This is how governments first came into existence. People in communities realized that they had to protect themselves from those who would do them harm. So they found a hero or heros who could protect them, and they paid this person or bartered with them somehow for their services as protector. And this protector would build an army for protection of the people.
Nothing can ever be completely fair, that's not reality. Look at nature, animals eat other animals.
Why don't YOU try again? Go read some world history and go back further than 250 years. This is the fairest nation the world has ever seen.
Many blacks in America have an ancestor, or ancestors, that owned plantations and slaves. Many whites in America (there's lots of us and a lot of variety) came from other countries AFTER slavery and are not racist and many of them were discriminated against. Many whites are descendants of people who fought slavery and injustice. So it's absolutely true that many blacks in America are decendants of slave-owners, and many whites are not racists and had nothing to do with slavery and didn't take part in discrimination. YOU are the racist if you put all white Americans into one group. YOU yourself don't understand history. Lose the Us and Them attitude. Lose the chip on your shoulder. There is opportunity in the America of today, for everyone.
