Black Entertainment Television (BET) founder Bob Johnson said Tuesday that the nation would “never tolerate white unemployment at 14 or 15 percent” and yet unemployment for the black community has been double that of white Americans for over 50 years.
“This country would never tolerate white unemployment at 14 and 15 percent. No one would ever stay in office at 14 or 15 percent unemployment in this nation, but we’ve had that double unemployment for over 50 years,” Johnson said while speaking at the National Press Club about the gap between whites and blacks in America.
“The national average is 7.7 percent, and African-American unemployment is 13.8 percent. To be honest, it’s probably greater than that when you count the number of African-Americans who have simply given up on finding employment,” said Johnson, who is also founder and chairman of The RLJ Companies.
In 1972, the unemployment rate for African-Americans was 11.2 percent in January of that year and as low as 9.4 percent in December of that same year. It dipped as low as seven percent in April 2000. The unemployment rate for blacks in February 2013 was 13.8 percent, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Johnson said the challenge was to figure out why the unemployment rate for blacks has been so high, “and if that doesn’t change, somebody’s going to have to pay— 34 million African-Americans are not going to leave this country, millions of African-Americans who don’t have jobs.”
“Somebody’s going to have to pay for them. Somebody’s going to have to take care of them, and if somebody’s going to have to take care of them, that money’s got to come from somebody. And whoever’s paying for it is going to be upset about it, and they’re going to start looking for somebody to blame,” Johnson said.
According to the poll Johnson commissioned, which was conducted by Zogby, 50 percent of African-Americans blame the “failure of the education system for minorities/African-Americans” for high unemployment among blacks, while 48 percent say the “lack of corporate commitment to hiring minorities/African-Americans” is to blame for unemployment in the black community.
Twenty-five percent of respondents blame the lack of government policies for the high rate of black unemployment. Eighteen percent don’t blame anyone or anything, and twelve percent aren’t sure.
“We can’t be competitive if we don’t put all our people on the field to work, and African-Americans can’t be consumers if they don’t have jobs. They can’t buy houses, and the reason the wealth gap is so high, we don’t [have] home ownership. We don’t have savings. We don’t have investments, and part of that is because we don’t have capital,” Johnson said.What if an entity existed that didn't have a lack of corporate commitment to hiring minorities/blacks? In fact, what if one could look at government hiring at the local, state, and federal level, and point out that it operates as a powerful jobs program for otherwise unemployable black people? [Anti-white racism found in Chicago transit hiring: Black population called 'unduly dependent on public sector employment, WND.com, 3-23-13]:
The Chicago Transit Authority, one of the largest employers in Chicago, has a dramatic racial imbalance in its workforce, records show.
Data obtained by WND through a Freedom of Information Act request reveals that whites and Hispanics are vastly underrepresented in the Chicago Transit Authority workforce.
Minorities are 82 percent of the total CTA workforce, with blacks comprising 65 percent. The city of Chicago itself is roughly one-third white, one-third Hispanic and one-third black.
The percentage of blacks in CTA employment is twice their share of the population, and several legal experts are surprised by this disparity, and note that a similar racial imbalance would be cause for alarm if the disparity were weighted toward whites.
The disproportionately high percentage of blacks employed in Chicago by CTA is part of a pattern observed in Washington, D.C., Birmingham, Ala., and Atlanta, Ga., among other cities. According to the New York Times, one out of every five black workers has a public sector job.
University of Pennsylvania law professor Amy Wax offered her view to WND:
Although blacks would almost certainly be better off if they were more active in the private economy, the fact is that they are unduly dependent on public sector employment. Without government jobs, the turmoil and instability that is already too prevalent in the black community might increase.In the private and public sector, disparities in hiring or pay are often the subject of controversy and lawsuits.
Roger Clegg, president and general counsel for the Center for Equal Opportunity, told WND that the CTA demographics would be an issue if the races were reversed.
“It is certainly true that, if the shoe were on the other foot, there would be all kinds of accusations being made.”
Clegg says that the disparities raise questions about CTA’s hiring practices.
“I would say that these numbers don’t prove that anything is amiss, but that they do merit further inquiry to ensure that the CTA is recruiting and hiring the best qualified individuals, regardless of skin color or national origin,” he said.
Wax argues that “[t]he whole point of discarding disparate impact liability” which she seeks to abolish, “is that a discrepancy between specific groups’ percentage in the population and their representation in a particular job or job type should not be the basis for litigation.”Yes, Virginia, the government does exist to employ otherwise unemployable black people. It's not just the CTA that is run as a jobs program, with your friendly, neighborhood United States Postal Service (USPS) performing as the ultimate market inefficient employer of otherwise unemployable black people as well.
Let's face it -- the government and barber shops are about the only two sources of steady jobs for black people.
Oh, and Mr. Johnson, black people can be "consumers" if they don't have jobs... that's what the EBT/Food Stamp card is for!! That you can't invest the government issued EBT/Food Stamp in the stock market yet is only a few years away from seeing implementation into the marketplace.
Weaponized Equality, after all, is the theory that the government can break down all barriers of inequality placed in front of black people.
Damn the consequences, right?

@white mom who said, "I am not a deadbeat."
As someone whose parents paid thousands for my schooling, housing, and living expenses, I say, yes, damn straight you are a deadbeat.
I don't buy the lame excuse you front for walking away from financial responsibility, citing your actions as honorable and just acts of rebellion against a system you feel is somehow cheating you. I've met your lot before. Berkeley was brimming with them in the 60's and 70's. Big talking liberal B.S.ers, and in the end, phonies, to a man/woman. Yes, I said liberals.
Someone else's taxes paid for your education. Probably my parents. Now
my taxes are paying the added penalties you choose to ignore, other honest tax paying citizens will ultimately pick up the tab for your defaulted mortgage.
White woman to white woman, in my view, your default behaviors are unethical and sociopathic, not to mention, irresponsible. Interestingly, these are the "white tax burden" black behaviors we discuss here on SBPDL.
I also agree with others who have expressed the sense that you are a troll.
More flash mobs tonight of hundreds of blacks rampaging through the shopping and tourist area of Chicago. All anyone has to do is to take one look to see how unemployable, how moronic these "youths" are. Normal people don't even want to be in the vicinity of these feral creatures, let alone employ them. There's a huge demographic of blacks who are totally unemployable and will be so throughout their entire lives. Of course, the television stations use black reporters so as to show the public responsible blacks going tsk tsk over it all, though in reality they are just a small number. Most are part of the mob.

Ex New Yorker here....I have been reading the comments left by readers on the YAHOO story about the Atlanta Schools cheating scandal. HOLY SHIT. About 95% of the comments sound like the comments left here or on AMREN. It was a long read and I was impressed by how many people are starting to see through the bullshit. There were the typical rants against the liberals, but most of the comments were quite eye opening. Maybe a lot of the people are stating to wake up.
I saw the news on this BET genius, but had not focused on his specific words.
Black Entertainment Television (BET) founder Bob Johnson said …
In 1972, the unemployment rate for African-Americans was 11.2 percent in January of that year and as low as 9.4 percent in December of that same year.
Of course, 1972 was around the time that negroes ramped up their hatred of all things white and all things American. It's also roughly the time when they began to become feral on a widespread basis. Their inhibitions toward total African behavior began to seriously break down and the culture began to teach them that they needed to hate everything around them.
Johnson said the challenge was to figure out why the unemployment rate for blacks has been so high, “and if that doesn’t change, somebody’s going to have to pay— 34 million African-Americans are not going to leave this country, millions of African-Americans who don’t have jobs.”
With all due respect, you affirmative action monkey, no one is going to pay for negroes who will not work, or not for much longer.
“Somebody’s going to have to pay for them. Somebody’s going to have to take care of them, and if somebody’s going to have to take care of them, that money’s got to come from somebody. "
No. We are not taking care of them any longer. White America has had enough of taking care of negroes. It has been going on for hundreds of years. We've had enough. Our financial and real estate systems have been collapsed in part to "help" negroes. Our cities are in ruins. Our nation is bankrupt. Violent negro crime has reached levels of depravity unimaginable in the past. And negroes want more?
According to the poll Johnson commissioned, which was conducted by Zogby, 50 percent of African-Americans blame the “failure of the education system for minorities/African-Americans” for high unemployment among blacks, while 48 percent say the “lack of corporate commitment to hiring minorities/African-Americans” is to blame for unemployment in the black community.
Twenty-five percent of respondents blame the lack of government policies for the high rate of black unemployment. Eighteen percent don’t blame anyone or anything, and twelve percent aren’t sure.
I blame negroes. When viewed in the aggregate, as a group they are dumb, they have low IQs. They are lazy. They are resentful. They are hyper-violent. They lack any ability to plan for the future. They cannot speak English. They cannot do arithmetic. They have bad attitudes. They rob, steal, assault, rape and murder in astonishing numbers. They are corrupt. They are racists. They lack morality. They cannot care for their children, They bring destruction to everything they touch. Over the vast stretch of history they have accomplished nothing, not writing, not the wheel, not sailing vessels, not agriculture. Nothing.
Black Entertainment Television. That's all negroes exist for, entertainment. They exist here to be entertained and fed. Who the hell is this arrogant negro Johnson and how much of your's and my family's earnings were shuffled to this negro in a suit?
Whenever you see some fat negress driving a nice car/SUV on the highway, I can almost guarantee she's got a public sector job: city, county, state, federal...
or is the beneficiary of someone who does.
Ex New Yorker again....This guy Bob Johnson sure doesn't know much about the urban lifestyle. There are hundreds of thousands of black people with out jobs because they are gainfully SELF EMPLOYED. They have businesses such as car jacking and auto theft, burglary and fencing, robbery and mugging. The sale of drugs is a booming business and brings in much more loot than working at a job.
Pimps and hookers are also SELF EMPLOYED and make enough money to buy nice new gold teeth. Why should a mack-daddy get a job flipping burgers when he can have a string of whores keeping him living the good life. Get a job. You must be kidding. These independent business men also have the add on benefit of paying no taxes. A pimp or dope dealer filing for a re-fund. Fuck man, where you from. You feel me.
Most employers are looking for people that know how to read and write so that would eliminate a certain number from the work force. Why go to work if you be gittin dat
check to stay at home and raise your babies.
There are no college courses on how to be a pimp or dope dealer, so that does add some hardships to learning these trades. But with the will to succeed one should become very successful and also provide a service to the community.
Remember, just because you have a felony record and do not know how to read and write, does not mean you cannot start your own business and become a respected person in the neighborhood.

Oh the things I have seen working for city government! Human resources had to give the burned out ghetto bunnies a job. Guess who's office they got put into. It's called an ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) transfer. One was a Bible lady (she spent working hours reading it) and one was a psychiatric diagnosis. The psychiatric one could attack any white person in the office and we had to provide "reasonable accomodation" for the fact that this bitch was nuts. Try getting work done when someone is screaming her head off and the boss (a DWL) is pretending that nothing out of the ordinary is happening.
And those two would do anything to keep their jobs except to do them. The reason that so many black folks work for government is that they can't get away with their shit anywhere else. Between civil service protections and union protections, they cannot be fired unless they bring an uzi to work and clean out half the staff. And then the psych case could plead diminished capacity.
As someone who used to ride the CTA frequently to get to work in the Loop, I can tell you they dont give two shits about their job. The stations and trains all smell like piss, its as if no one ever cleans them. You never see them doing any work, instead they'll be groups of at least 3 of them standing around talking.
Sorry if off topic but this has to do with cheating scandal graduation in the ATL regarding those unemployable vibrant diverse youfs:

Sorry Bob no one is falling for that if only we gave them jobs crap anymore. Don't like the unemployment rate? Take it up with that marxist wizard of economics the chicago dear leader messiah.
Here we go again...
Johnson said the challenge was to figure out why the unemployment rate for blacks has been so high, ...
* High rates of school dropouts.
* High crime rates putting more blacks in jail and thus out of the job market.
* High rates of inter-generational welfare dependency undermining any work ethic.
* High crime rates deterring businesses from opening in black areas.
* High rates of STDs taking even more blacks out of the job market.
* High illegitimacy rates contributing to all of the above.
* Failure of wealthy blacks to invest in their own communities.
* The brain drain of talented blacks fleeing their own communities.
* The self-destruction of black run cities such as Detroit.
* The pathological blaming of some etheric entity called "racism" for all of the above.
Are these being discussed on BET?
(And now we break to the sound of crickets chirping.)
So ... it turns out it's ALL WHITE PEOPLE'S FAULT that blacks are such dismal failures at everything except rapping, raping and bakkabawl.
Ha. Didn't see that one coming!
Black people have no problem with the idea that there may be an over abundance of black people in any given job far in excess of their percentage of the population. Once they achieve that level of domination, they'll defend it with all the fervor of knights defending a castle against a barbarian horde and do everything they can to keep barbarians (all other races) out. However, if they even suspect that there is one black too few in any given occupation or business, they'll throw a fit and scream racism.
It's always about black domination and control with everyone else being kicked to the curb as soon as blacks gain that magic percentage of numbers~ the oft mentioned tipping point. Once that happens, their hostility, prejudice, bigotry and exclusiveness comes to the fore and is blatant and obvious. All the talk of fairness, disparate impact etc up to that point is just playing the victim but as soon as the tipping point is reached, they become a thousand times worse than anyone they ever complained about.
I've been through such a scenario and have seen first hand how they really are as opposed to how they like to play the sweet, innocent, poor and downtrodden angel who just needs to be given a fair shake.
They're full of shit and I have zero sympathy or concern for them.
Happy Easter fellow whites! has anyone but us here at SBPDL noticed that there is a black president in office!(even though whitey runs in his veins) this ultra rich nigger(BET) has the ability to open up a number of business's and to hire all races. but we know it would be more blacks than whites and or others. but taking this into consideration this black man is still, still crying the race fucking card. no one wants to tolerate 15% unemployment for anyone is this great country! so again here's a black man, a rich as hell one to boot crying like us whites fuck these griods over at all costs. give us a fucking break nigger! note to blackie WE HAVE A BLACK PRESIDENT give your race HUSTLE a break. better yet how about WHITEY doesn't give a fuck about your leech RACE! just for the record I like to fuck with the black co-workers by saying America's 1st. half white president! I know that pisses them off real good! but the truth dose hurt! 2013 and the pretend civil rights lie is still going on and it should of been buried since 1968. we wont be able to fix this condition for a long time . so I say we cleanse the dam country! but that wont happen either! so the duel gets harder! GODSPEED&SEGREGATION NOW!
Always gimme,gimme,gimme!
Hmmm, how's that 'education is a white thing' working out for you blacks? Can't read? Too bad. That, alone eliminates you from many, many jobs as the ability to read is required to even dig a ditch nowadays. Can't do basic math? That screws you over as well, as a 10 ton truck with a 20 ton load driving over a bridge rated at 5 tons results in hilarity. Got to be able to read, do basic math, problem solve to be worth employing. Reports are a big thing. Write a report in Ebonics and some white person will rewrite it while getting overtime. Last report you, a black, will get to do for that company. Run a batch of wrong material for a critical job and you, an illiterate black, will be replaced. When you cost the company more than you earn for the company, no one wants to hire your sorry ass.
Got facial tattoos? You are unemployable as many employers look at people who have facial tattoos as being difficult to work with/anti-social. Got saggy pants? You get told to pull them up once, maybe twice before getting sent home for being a safety risk. Don't tie your shoes? Same thing. 5 sizes too large clothing? Same thing. OSHA goes after the employer for not enforcing safety rules, not the dumb ass who refuses to follow the rules.
Can't show up on time? You will be replaced, and often with a Mexican who both shows up on time and works quite hard. Layoffs come and you, the lazy black dude, gets laid off while the Mexican worker stays.
Whitey isn't responsible for n*ggers irresponsible behavior. N*ggers need to take a long hard look in a mirror to see who, ultimately is responsible for them being chronically unemployable. Education is not just a 'white thing' it is a human thing.
Stop beating a dead horse. Are your attacks on me helping your situation? The system is rigged against us, if you can't 'see' that and if you continue to tow the line while the turds do nothing, you are going nowhere.
As I said, prior to 2008, my credit was flawless, then I got screwed, like millions of others. The middle class is a sponge that is near depletion of moisture and the greedy elite will suck that last bit out if that too. Let me say that they have done that to the worki g class whites as well.
We are in a war. Do you get it? You attack me for fighting. Wow, you are dumb. Your insults towards me are a waste of valuable time that you could be using to fight for yourself and your family. Do you get that the paradigm has shifted and that those who 'play by the rules' in Amurkustan are the ones who get screwed? Do you get that being an American citizen does not mean anything as amnesty may be given to people who broke the law to get in here in the first place? Do you get that whites are persecuted today? Do you get that our currency may not be worth anything in a short time ahead? Do you get that America is basically being invaded by third worlders living off of your earnings or 'privilege'?
So attack me, go ahead, but it is foolish. This is the time where we put aside being Americans and recognize that we are white people living in the third world called Amurkistan. I am a white woman who has two kids and aging parents who I will have to take care of...so, is it going to be me plus my family or the banks?
It is going to be me.
It is war on whites and I am not going to pay to the banks and the squids and the elite to help destroy me. That is just dumb.
White Mom in WDC
as schools integrated from the mid 1960's to early 1970's, K-12 blacks suddenly discovered they could be feral in a white environment & could get away with it -- usually being coddled, or well meaning white people set up meetings to discuss behavior of disadvantaged youth. ghetto blacks ran wild from K-12 & learned that white people tolerated it. while hate inflamed & grew among black adults. a volatile combination.

Right on. These same self employed cash business only folks stash their cash and then pretend 'dat dey got no munay' and then apply for EBT and Medicaid and lots of other freebies.

"34 million African-Americans are not going to leave this country". Why not?
We could buy land in Africa and relocate them. 500 people will fit on a airliner. 200 flights a day is 100,000 people. 10 days is a million. One year would do the trick. Give them each $10,000, thank them and say "Have a nice life."

The only issue would be one where those who realized what they had lost would attempt to return from the motherland. Suspect that within six months most would be either dead or dying and that those still alive would be setting up gangs.
Mr. Johnson begins from a false premise. The real unemployment rate overall is at least 13%-14% when you count the numbers of people who have dropped out of the work force in the last several years of our "recovery." Businesses are under more pressure to get things right given the high tax and regulatory environment that we are now in. Thus, marginal workers who cannot keep up with changing demands in a more competitive workplace will be less likely to get, or keep a high end job in the private sector. Businesses just can't afford to be offering charity positions when the economy is as it is today. If you are educated, have good skills and can pull your weight, you have a much better chance of survival in a competitive business climate. If you are illiterate with little education and no job skills, you are not going to find work.

White Mom, would it cramp your style to click "Name/URL" and put your handle at the top, instead of as a tag line at the bottom?
Liberia 2, further considerations.
Now some of you will say "Why should we give each emigrant $10,000? After all, we owe them nothing."
If the treasury department were to print a special scrip that could only be redeemed in America for American goods, then the $10,000 x 34,000,000 = $340,000,000,000 would all be spent here. It would put our unemployed back to work.
In their newly minted "LIberia 2", Black leaders such as Johnson would face a choice. (1) Spend the 340 billion on caterpillar tractors, hydroelectric dams and schools, or (2) on crack cocaine and whores or (3) on weapons to wage war on their African neighbors or inter tribally on each other. This will be the watershed moment in modern Black history.
Meanwhile, America's inner cities will enjoy a renaissance such as occurred after WW2 in Germany and Japan with the resurrection of civil life, phoenix -like from the bombed ruins of their metropolises.
In the long run, 340 billion will be a bargain.

This! This is why I call major BS when you hear whites say Affirmative Action got “incompetent” Black people the job. NO company – especially in this economy - is going to put themselves in a position where they may be sued, damage customer relations, or lose profit because of ineptitude.
This very truth is reflected in the article. White people can’t accept that a Black may outshine them, simply because they think themselves to be so superior – as evidenced on this blog. My experience is that whites get very intimidated by this, and then try to tear someone else down by using Affirmative Action as a crutch.
Afterall, that’s why Bob or Becky didn’t get the job, because AA helped some underserving Negro get it or get promoted. That’s why Brad or Susie didn’t get into that medical program because of AA. I mean you have to be insane in the membrane to believe this.
Who the hell lowers requirements in the medical field in order for Blacks to pass? I was incredulous when demented whites were saying the only reason Dr. Ben Carson was so successful was because of AA. Let me just state, all the Affirmative Action in the world doesn’t garner you successful surgeries.
You can pull the wool over someone’s eye with some things, but you can NEVER EVER fake a successful operation. Dr. Carson has had PLENTY of them. He’s a brilliant man, deserving of all the recognition and applause he receives.
Yet, the jealous, insecure hordes claim his success was due to AA. They're eaten alive with envy. Like I said, just insane in the membrane.
"This! This is why I call major BS when you hear whites say Affirmative Action got “incompetent” Black people the job. NO company – especially in this economy - is going to put themselves in a position where they may be sued, damage customer relations, or lose profit because of ineptitude. "
Ha. I've known of AAAA in the military. To get into tech schools you must qualify by having a high enough score before entering the school. I worked with a black E5 who routinely bragged about getting a black general to give him a shot at an advanced electronics school when he didn't qualify. To make a long story short the black E5 was thrown out of that field and reassigned to race relations for behavior that would have killed many and destroyed millions in equipment.
AAAA do exist and they often get shuttled to the side so as to minimize the damage they may cause.
One guy in charge of Sony wrote that the US was going to be in economic trouble because there are too many blacks not doing anything. How awful a thing to say said liberals. How correct he was.

Necessity is the mother of invention. Creativity will overcome adversity & tyranny. That means YT is gonna figure a way to barter/trade & live outside the current system. How can you tax YT for the apple he grows on his tree, outside of property taxes that he does have to pay, whatcha gonna do? Try to steal that apple & there are consequences...goodluck taxing the meat, fruit & veggies he grows for himself. Where there is a will there is a way...necessity is the mother of invention.

Californian said: High crime rates putting more blacks in jail and thus out of the job market.
If only blacks were properly incarcerated......
The problem for the negroes are the criminal records that remove them from consideration from many of their already limited employment opportunities.
I am thinking shipping containers on modern cargo ships.
That is a GREAT idea! The containers could be outfitted as living space and just dropped on the beach. Let Black creative genius find ways to move them to higher ground, raft them upriver, and so forth. The receiving governments would probably be happy to get the extra housing.
The container ship supply is around 17 million TEUs capacity. If you can put 1 million TEUs to work as transports and they carry 2.5 per TEU, 16 circuits would move 40 million. That's under 2 years of work.
The shallow-draft barges doing the unloading and transport to the beach would be working overtime, but that's the way things go.
Jay Santos said:
. Violent negro crime has reached levels of depravity unimaginable in the past. And negroes want more?
That doesn't happen to be true.
Blacks do indeed run amok, rape, rob and murder. But less so than twenty years ago. Most criminologists attribute the huge surge in black violence in the nineties to crack cocaine. The conventional explanation as to why there are fewer black murders today is that the black community wised up and switched to marijuana.
I'm not sure about this explanation but there are fewer bodies on the street today than formerly.
However the murder rate is likely to rise again since black unemployment is likely to rise above current rates and whites are beginning to resent "carrying" the black sub-population.
Trayvon Martin is a look into the future. He was unemployed. He never had had a real job. He was a school drop out and he had incidents of violence and drug use - maybe drug dealing and robbery too. Let's assume for the sake of argument that he spontaneously reversed his life trajectory. He cleaned up and tried to get a job. Who would hire him?
Under the best of circumstances he would be a twenty something guy with no previous work history. Like everyone else on this thread, I had had several jobs as a teen. When I turned twenty one my resume showed that I had worked construction and on an assembly line. Not great jobs but something.
A whole generation of black teens will have missed the first job experience. What's worse Obama wants to exacerbate the problem with a higher minimum wage.
If Trayvon Martin hadn't got himself killed what would he have done with his life? He would most likely have ended up in a federal prison being maintained at taxpayer expense. Modern society simply has no use for school drop outs with no work history at least in the private sector.

Why is there relatively high Negro unemployment? I say relatively because even if it is high relative to US Whites it remains low compared to a Negro majority country such as Haiti. Well there are two primary reasons.
1) Many Negroes are being subsidized to not work and
2) The level of productivity for the average Negro is remarkably low because of the average intelligence and education level; reliability for showing up on time and to work; and the effort he'll put into doing the job.
As to the second the ROI for hiring a Negro is minimal or even a negative. Negroes are obsolete farm equipment. Mechanization has made him unprofitable in the private sector. This explains his dependence on the public sector where profit is not an issue.
Blacks need to put their money where their mouth is. There are plenty of black rappers, musicians, actors and actresses who have a net worth alone more than any of the posters who come on here.
Can anyone name me ONE negro millionaire who has taken in a negro child from Haiti or Afreeka? Why is it only WHITE women who are stupid enough to adopt these kids?
Let’s see we have Beyonce, JayZ, Will & Jada Smith, Oprah, 50 cent, Lil Wayne to mention a few; (Emminem negro wannabe), Sean Penn, Alex Baldwin, Bono (all self-hating whites who are negro worshippers) ALL have tons and tons of money to help the negroes. Hell Oprah gave I don’t know how much money to some school in Negroland years ago. She could certainly do that here.
But oh no, it’s EASIER to hate whitey. You know why? Whitey is too nice. Whitey takes it in the ass over and over again. It’s hip, trendy and cool to make fun of whitey, denigrate whitey, but has NO problem with taking whitey’s money.
This is why I applaud White Mom for saying FU to the bankers with her mortgage.
White Mom could be lying in the ditch and BRA wouldn’t help her. In fact, they wouldn’t piss on her if she were on fire and all you self-hating whites, negro worshippers and negroes all know this is true.
If you despair of being able to do something positive in opposing the black tide, here's an idea.
Get smart about education.
Many people casually say "I don't know about that because I didn't have the advantage of going to college". That's nonsense. College doesn't make you smarter.
This is a fallacy rather like Lamarckian selection. The reality is that college grads are smarter because of pure Darwinian processes. In the herd of college freshmen, the less bright tend to drop out first. People drop out usually because of finances, or the opposite sex, or something else. Students do not just quit because they suddenly hit an intellectual wall. The smartest students just have one less source of stress and tend to graduate at higher rates than the dumbest.
Would you say "I don't know much about integral calculus because I didn't take that class"? No. You didn't take calculus because you weren't any good at math. Trust me. I taught calculus and even as wonderful a math teacher as I was, I couldn't punch difficult ideas into unsuitable heads. Girls tend to run out of gas at geometry. Fewer make it through trig or algebra or if they do they don't enjoy it very much. Education is like a series of sieves that sort rocks from gravel. It doesn't make the rocks bigger but only the big rocks get through.
Black kids are lousy students who fail to learn at appropriate rates and who disrupt the classroom. Yet every time anyone mentions bad black behavior someone will call for more and better public education.
As I've mentioned before, American public schools are fine. They teach as well or better than any public schools anywhere in the world. We don't need Superman.
Public school performance is a almost only a function of the racial composition of the student body. In the education industry the fact that no one can teach black kids much is called the "racial gap". Billions have been spent to close that gap but it remains stubbornly open.
Almost all optimistic nostrums for eliminating black, poverty, crime and unemployment are based on some kind of education - early childhood education, job training, or affirmative action preferences in college admissions. Yet we know with great certainty that blacks are profoundly refractory to schooling. It's like prescribing music appreciation classes for the deaf.
So the next time you hear someone talk rot about education - speak up!

Dear Nordic Caucasoid
I'm Irish not really Nordic but my best freind is a blond blue eyed Swede. He's worked for the federal government for more than four decades. How's that possible?
He got in as a Mexican. True story. The feds have been known to sometimes make a mistake.

"Of course, 1972 was around the time that negroes ramped up their hatred of all things white and all things American. It's also roughly the time when they began to become feral on a widespread basis. Their inhibitions toward total African behavior began to seriously break down and the culture began to teach them that they needed to hate everything around them." - 1972 was also the last year of genuine labor scarcity. The open borders policies that they voted for went into effect in 1973 I think.
Ben Carson is not proof of anything at all. He may or may not have had some Affirmative Action help along the way. I don't think it matters much in an individual case. In any case we won't know.
The minimum IQ for physicians is 114 but the average IQ is probably about 130. My doctor is Korean. East Asians are disproportionately represented in medicine as they are in engineering. But blacks are rather rare in both.
Most of that is simply intellectual competence. There aren't very many blacks who are smart enough to be doctors. At the IQ level of 130 there are 100 whites to every one black. I posted on how the Gaussian math works before, so for now just trust me.
I'm smart, but there are black guys smarter than I am - that's another consequence of the math. Maybe Dr. Carson is one of them. I'm also tall (6'4") but there are men taller than I am too. Dr. Carson's smarts don't surprise or intimidate me.
Black people who rejoice in Dr. Carson's success have a right to be proud of him. But the main story is in average brain power - not a single exceptional individual.
White people have an average brain volume of 1435 cubic centimeters whereas blacks are at 1346 cc. White brains are larger at the front. Blacks are larger at the back. White brains are also widely reported to be more convoluted than black ones.
Whites in America have an average IQ of nearly 106. The tests were standardized at 100 but this includes other racial groups with lower scores. Blacks in America have an average IQ of 85. African Americans are approximately 20% white. Pure Africans (mostly Bantus) in Africa have IQs around 70. The !Kung and Australian Aborigines have even lower scores.
La Griffe du Lion has a statistical model that argues that a nation's wealth is a function of the proportion of the population who score over 106 on the verbal scale of an IQ test. For Northern European whites that's 50%. For the !Kung that's about 1.3%. That's why Europeans went to the Kalihari not the other way around.
Lynn's studies show the correlation between national IQ and national wealth to be about .70. That's phenominally high. It's only a slight exageration to say that brains are all that matters in understanding wealth differences.
Blacks have bigger thighs than whites. That allows them to run faster. Whites have bigger brains than blacks. That allows them to think faster.
Simple.

According to the poll Johnson commissioned, which was conducted by Zogby, 50 percent of African-Americans blame the “failure of the education system for minorities/African-Americans” for high unemployment among blacks, while 48 percent say the “lack of corporate commitment to hiring minorities/African-Americans” is to blame for unemployment in the black community.
Twenty-five percent of respondents blame the lack of government policies for the high rate of black unemployment. Eighteen percent don’t blame anyone or anything, and twelve percent aren’t sure.
50 + 48 + 25 + 18 + 12 = 153%
When doing this type of a poll, only a primary response as to a cause should be allowed.
Johnson allowed BET, then a NYSE listed company, to be acquired for $3 billion by Viacom in 2003. He knows the day is coming when TV channels are offered "a la carte" and he knew damn sure that BET wasn't worth $77 per negro (based on 2010 census) in the United States, when today, BET is network that only reaches 90 million households in the United States, Caribbean, Canada, and the United Kingdom, and with most of them being white and not wanting the channel.
Hmm...

It's always about black domination and control with everyone else being kicked to the curb as soon as blacks gain that magic percentage of numbers~ the oft mentioned tipping point. Once that happens, their hostility, prejudice, bigotry and exclusiveness comes to the fore and is blatant and obvious. All the talk of fairness, disparate impact etc up to that point is just playing the victim but as soon as the tipping point is reached, they become a thousand times worse than anyone they ever complained about.
This is a good point and one which is worth exploring. Many white Americans go on the basis that blacks want a fair chance at things, a level playing field. But that is not the way it has worked out. Blacks, at least those with any power, strive to enhance that power.
To put it simply, if whites surrender power then why should anyone be surprised when other groups move into the vacuum? That has been the standard procedure for politics since the Neolithic Era.
Look at the history of the USA over the last six decades, or of post-colonial Africa, and now the expanding third world ghettos in European cities. Blacks, once granted equality, move to maximize their power. And to dispossess their ethnic rivals. Often, this causes the self-destruction of their own communities (e.g., Detroit). In Africa, black majority rule leads to dictatorship, economic debacle attacks on ethnic minorities (including whites). But blacks prefer to hold power even as their societies disintegrate around them.
This is lost on DWLs who continue to believe that if only white people were nice to blacks, all shall live in the Promised Land. I suspect this is one reason that the mainstream media shows so many "positive images" of blacks and suppresses information on black criminality. It's one more manifestation of a civilization-wide Stockholm Syndrome. When face with an unpleasant reality, DWLS create a fantasy world in which equality really works.
Blacks justify their dominance with all sorts of ideological folderol, but the reality is that they push out other groups via affirmative action, flash mobs, race hustling of every manner, urban insurrection. This is why you have to look at the political component to black violence, whether you are talking about gangbanging in the 'hood or farm attacks in South Africa.
The dilemma is: why do whites not understand their own interests and fight for them?
Until the country faces the facts about black I. Q. "issues" nothing will ever change.
Black Amethyst said...White people can’t accept that a Black may outshine them, simply because they think themselves to be so superior – as evidenced on this blog. My experience is that whites get very intimidated by this, and then try to tear someone else down by using Affirmative Action as a crutch.
If you believe this, then you have misunderstood what white people are saying.
Granted, there are individual cases of black excellence (and good for them).
But where do we collectively see this "outshining?" Is it in black rates of graduation? Illegitimacy? Welfare dependency? Business revenues? Violent crime?
Is it in black stewardship of cities such as Detroit or Birmingham or Newark? Or in post-colonial Africa? Perhaps in the wave of car burnings and rioting by "people of color" in the European Union?
What concerns many whites is that blacks are not holding up their end of the bargain. Whites have over the past half century given blacks just about everything they have demanded: from Brown v Board of Education to the war on poverty to a black man as POTUS.
In return, whites get from blacks: more crime, more illegitimacy, more trashed schools, more cities self-destructing. And rarely if ever do we see blacks taking responsibility for any of this. Instead, all we get is one more race hustle on top of many more race hustles.
Put yourself in the position of your average white person: would you really want to live in a city like Detroit, or a country like Zimbabwe? Heck, you have millions of blacks fleeing from their own majority-rule paradises.
If whites are "intimidated," it is not because of successful black surgeons, engineers and criminologists. It is because under black-majority-rule, white people see themselves and their children being brutalized by criminality; their schools decline; their civic infrastructure fall apart; and themselves being driven out of the cities and countries they and their ancestors built.

Afterall, that’s why Bob or Becky didn’t get the job, because AA helped some underserving Negro get it or get promoted. That’s why Brad or Susie didn’t get into that medical program because of AA. I mean you have to be insane in the membrane to believe this.
Are you aware of the following?
* Affirmative action.
* "Diversity" requirements.
* Minority business programs.
* Section 8 housing policies.
* Blacks-only government contracts.
* Black studies departments on many universities.
* Bill Gates scholarships which exclude white people.
* The legal support of the ACLU for affirmative action.
* Major corporations providing grants and "365" policies for blacks.
* Hatecrime laws giving additional protection to blacks but not whites.
* Universities speech codes which censure students who deride blacks (while it is perfectly legit for professors to call for the "abolition" of the white race).
* Church and state in the USA importing large numbers of Haitians and Somalis while ignoring whites who want to get out of South Africa.
All these programs and many more are means by which whites are legally discriminated against in the USA.
The reason that Bob or Becky did not get that job was because they were held to a higher standard than blacks when applying for it. Or were not considered qualified for that business grant simply because of the color-of-their-skin. Or were forced out of a major university for making a politically incorrect remark.
Or maybe they were the victim of a wilding or drive-by and ended up in the trauma ward. Or their school standards dropped to accommodate a "diverse" student body so they never made it to that ivy league campus. Or they were forced out of their neighborhood because of vandalism and gangs and relocated away from job markets. Or perhaps they were tortured and murdered on that farm they and their family had worked in South Africa for centuries.
Given all this, perhaps you can understand where white people are coming from.
Is there any hope for this country.
Will blacks continue to blame whites for all of their problems. and never except that they are problem. Why is it that poor asians can come here and whithin one generation they have a Harvard or MIT graduate in the family. This is still the greatest country in the world but blacks will continue to ruin it unless something is done.
@Anon 9:16AM “I worked with a black E5 who routinely bragged about getting a black general to give him a shot at an advanced electronics school when he didn't qualify. To make a long story short the black E5 was thrown out of that field and reassigned to race relations for behavior that would have killed many and destroyed millions in equipment.”
He was THROWN OUT. No amount of AA was able to protect him then, now did it? Who you know may get you in the door, but it’s what you know that will keep you there. A lot of people in positions of authority will give a person a break, if they feel there may be potential in the individual.
Part of being successful and having doors open for you, is knowing how to advocate for yourself. He must have had the gift of the gab to have that door open, as you said he bragged about having to convince someone to give him a chance. Of course the E5 promised to work and study hard, but didn’t know what in the world he was doing and was rightfully let go.
They won't risk damaged customer relations, or decreased profit, but they WILL risk a federal discrimination lawsuit?

He tried. He called in race relations and filed complaints about half the people in the shop. Race relations basically told him he was full of shit. He was incompetent from the beginning and had no reason to be in that school. Talked to a couple of his instructors and they said that they were told that he 'would pass' the classes. That he did, but how he did it was up for debate.
Do you want to worship this Dr Carson? Stop acting black, just because a black Dr measures up to his white colleagues, why does that make him deserving of adulation and adoration.
Is the chieftain adoration syndrome kicking in, if white don't want to be shown up by a black, why do we allow other whites to show us up, or even orientals?
Your argument proves your ghetto thinking, your DNA causes you to think that way, Dr carson is an outlier, if only there were more like him, maybe blacks would feel better.
Clearly the end of slavery, equality and all the other special programs haven't achieved that
Now go and get some KFC, it will make you feel happier
Mr. Rational saidThat is a GREAT idea! The containers could be outfitted as living space and just dropped on the beach. Let Black creative genius find ways to move them to higher ground, raft them upriver, and so forth. The receiving governments would probably be happy to get the extra housing.
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Who said anythig about letting the negroes take the shipping containers with them? No way, they have been given enough by whitey. We will retain the shipping containers to be re-used for the next batch of deportees.
Mr. Rational saidThe container ship supply is around 17 million TEUs capacity. If you can put 1 million TEUs to work as transports and they carry 2.5 per TEU, 16 circuits would move 40 million. That's under 2 years of work.
I am thinking more than 2.5/TEU. There are lots of sprogs.
Mr. Rational saidThe shallow-draft barges doing the unloading and transport to the beach would be working overtime, but that's the way things go.
Way too elaborate for this cargo. My vision of running them off down a gangplank was flawed, it assumed that the cargo ship could just pull into some type of deep water, dredged port. Instead, the deportees would just be brought in as close as possible to a beach and have to make use of their vaunted swimming skills.
Who said anythig about letting the negroes take the shipping containers with them? No way, they have been given enough by whitey.
First, you want to give the receiving nations a reason to let you into their territorial waters to unload, and second... after seeing what happens to entire cities after their occupancy, would you want to bring those containers back?!

I am so glad they stood up to that nonsense. Some people have the ability to pass tests, you know they’re book smart, but then when they get on the job… it’s a whole other story. The General risked sticking his neck out like that and being branded someone with poor judgment, couldn’t of been a good thing. And then the idiot he tried to help did all of that. Wow…just wow.

@Anon March 31, 2013 at 11:26 PM “They won't risk damaged customer relations, or decreased profit, but they WILL risk a federal discrimination lawsuit?”
Did you even read the article? That said, it depends on the company. Since Black people are citizens protected by the laws of the land just like everyone else, if a company decides to use Federal funding then they must abide by the rules. People were saying they just shuffle Black incompetents to the side.
Why not use hiring measures already set in place and hire those who qualify? The story of anon 6:10 regarding the E5 is a perfect example. Can’t do the work? Bye bye. There are a lot of Black Americans who are qualified to do their job, then you have a lot of Black immigrants who are qualified as well. Everything set aside for Black Americans these Black immigrants use. And I do mean everything. Some people feel it’s not right that these immigrants use it, and should have their own funding system set up, but it is what it is. And when many of them, come to this country, they are already well-educated. This is why I said all these claims of ineptitude I call BS.
You mean to tell me you're willing to risk be sued by hiring incompetents who cause massive amounts of headache, than hire someone who actually wants to do the job?
@EBTalicious,
Your speech betrays.you. The level of your conversation tells me you are just one pay check away from the EBT. Dr. Carson has distinguished himself and is well-deserving of the accolades he receives. He’s an outlier eh? There are plenty of Black people who are brilliant that are in the medical field. The world knows Dr. Carson’s name, but who are you? Shouldn’t all that white DNA have propelled you to the stars?
Granted, not everyone is destined to be a Doctor, but how come you haven’t made a name for yourself in your industry? I’ve worked with white males who have done very well in this life. They are confident, secure and feel they have nothing to prove to no one. These are self –made men. Because men like you aren’t on their level, it eats you alive and you resent that they reject you and won’t allow you in their inner –circle.
Why? Because you don’t belong. That good olds boy club is real! When you discover that they will consider a Black person their equal - and NOT YOU - it eats you alive. Souls start to burn! I’ve seen it. Mr. one paycheck away from the EBT, can’t hide his disgust, anger and envy. And these men make sure that YOU “know your place boy.” You’re petty and crass with no class.
You trash talking? Trash talkers are usually trash themselves, and in this case as the white upper crust calls it, you’re “white trash.” Believe me I’m far from ghetto, but it seems as if you’re in one, or are own your way.
KFC? Ha. I get the feeling that you eat plenty of it.
What is it with every groid intelligence defender of recent dropping the name Dr. Ben Carson?

If so it's a sorry story.

We used to have a poster here who was a medic in the Rangers who did SEAL training and had a IQ of 130.
That is unusual in that Affirmative Action Blessed Idiots have an IQ of 85 which means that very few will have one of 130 which means that Dr Carson could be really unusual for an Obama Offspring.
Black Amethyst said there's no such thing as affirmative action in medical school. Allow me to correct that false statement. I attended the New Jersey Medical School in Newark, NJ, which is part of the UMDNJ system. In my class of ~170 students there were about 8 blacks and a handful of Hispanics. EVERY black student, despite having graduated from Ivy League schools, was immediately diagnosed with ADD on arrival to med school. This allowed them to take their exams in a separate, smaller and quieter room than the rest of the class, without being timed. The rest of the class took their exams in a huge lecture hall, with a time limit that worked out to 90 seconds per question. In addition to this, the black students also had access to previous exams and lecture notes that the rest of the class did not. They also were given a special 4 week 'elective' in Gross Anatomy (where we dissected a cadaver) in the summer before the rest of the students began, just to ensure they could attempt to function at the same level as the rest of the class. The irony of all of this preferential treatment for blacks taking place in the ruined-by-blacks city of Newark, NJ, was completely lost on the black students.
Affirmative Action is alive and well in med school, I'm afraid, and it doesn't end there. Residency programs are brimming with barely literate blacks that they are terrified to fire out of fear of the inevitable lawsuit. Something to keep in mind when you meet your next black physician. Sure, there may be exceptions such as the good Dr Carson, but they merely prove the rule. If your doctor is white, you can rest assured that he made it through on his own merits. Daddy's money may have gotten him in, but he sank or swam on his own after that point. The same simply cannot be said for the vast majority of blacks in med school.
"I am so glad they stood up to that nonsense. Some people have the ability to pass tests, you know they’re book smart, but then when they get on the job… it’s a whole other story.

Working with black people? Mixed bag. The professionals were good or they wouldn't be there (pre affirmative action). Shared an office with a Black guy. Pretty good guy. He got screwed over by the Highland Park police one weekend. Told him that to instill fear in them the next time he gets pulled over tell them that he was with the caterers for so and so's party and were running late. Said the assholes would give him a police escort. He howled. I gave him a glowing recommendation when he moved on because he asked me to and he deserved it.
The line workers? Not impressed. Lazy and argumentative. When you say "if you have any problems then please call me" and they don't causing rework to product, that says a lot. Basically the line supervisor would provide them with work that needed to be done but required only minimal skills.
Techs? Pretty much average skill sets. Personality wise they were okay.
The black guy I shared an office with and I compared notes. He had family members that he hated (wasn't open as to why) and asked that if they called him to tell them he wasn't there that day. We both covered for each other in that regard. He'd dealt with racism. If all blacks were more like him there would be much fewer issues. He wasn't a 'Tom' either. We were friends at work. After work pretty much everyone went their separate ways.
When he got married the whole department turned out for his wedding 30-40 engineers and other coworkers. When I got married he came to my wedding (much less formal).
The issues I have with blacks are due to the E5 and the ones unwilling to work towards a goal that makes them productive members of society. You get hurt and can't work that is one thing. If you're able bodied and refuse to learn or refuse to work at an honest job (washing dishes is an honest job - slinging dope isn't) then you have my full contempt. No one promised any of us an easy life and to waste it because you want to put one over on the man or show whitey your ass says you are willing to cut off your nose to spite your face.
Am I a racist? Black people are okay niggers aren't and niggers come in all colors these days, not just your basic browns and black. Does saying that make me a racist? Then I am a racist who holds the door for people of all colors and genders (some say thanks and some don't) not looking for anything from them, just trying to treat them like I'd like to be treated.
I wouldn't go out of my way to fuck with anyone unless they gave me cause to do so.

Ahhh…that was so nice. I bet both of you had the time of your lives at each other’s wedding. You guys must have really been a tight knit group, to have all those co-workers there. Special day indeed.

I agree. You know they start these kids”slingin” real young, and as they continue on they end up getting a record, and then they feel life is over. However, there are plenty of programs out there to help anyone who wants to be helped. The big problem is that they become addicted to the stuff they sell.
It may be a battle, BUT if you want help, there are avenues where you can obtain it. Slingin is no way to live. If you have given up on yourself, and decide to become a lifelong criminal, then you really need to be taken off the streets for good.

This...I feel the same as you do. In my experience, your story is the most common one reiterated when I talk to white people. This has been my experience with different races as well. There is good and bad in every race. If you’re respectful with me, then I’m respectful with you. That simple. I see you didn’t mention any problems with your neighborhood, so that’s a good thing. I found this site by researching info on the Black community and stumbled upon it.
And yes, I just had to look in. Then I just had to post lol. I’m glad I did or I would have never heard your story. It makes me very glad that whatever some of these people experienced, that you never did and I pray you never do. You seem like a good person. Thanks for sharing.
@rjp – “What is it with every groid intelligence defender of recent dropping the name Dr. Ben Carson? Do negroes have so little hope that one almost not completely Affirmative Action story is their only hope for redemption? If so it's a sorry story.”
You’re pitiful. If you were well-read, then you would know that there are plenty of talented people of color, especially amongst my peers. There are many who are young, Black and gifted. Again, this is only if you were well-informed.
12:55 AM posting? Let’s see, here on the east coast that would be 3:55AM, and then 1:55AM and 2:55AM respectively, for the other time zones. Shouldn’t you have been sleeping around this time? What I said really tortured your mind? Good. Then you post again in the same day talking about Black I.Q.?
Just unreal lol. I’m the one feeling sorry for you. You’re a “man” whose up in the wee hours of the night, disturbed by what someone who you’ve never met wrote, and then you run your mouth like a woman?
Don’t like what I said about Dr. Carson? Bunch of insecure hussies. Like I said, just filled with envy.
Btw, “hussy” is usually reserved for women, but it’s most fitting in your case. Some of the “men” on this site… I wonder.
"And yes, I just had to look in. Then I just had to post lol. I’m glad I did or I would have never heard your story. It makes me very glad that whatever some of these people experienced, that you never did and I pray you never do. You seem like a good person. Thanks for sharing."
Had a couple of one of moments though with blacks. Got lost in Milwaukee trying to get back to my hotel, made a wrong turn and it wasn't nice. Had coffee thrown at me (at least I hope it was coffee) and for what? Being in someone's shitty, rundown shit hole of a neighborhood? That pissed me off. Made it out of there okay though (kept moving). Had an old boss who said "You're going to Cincinnati. When you pull up at a stop light leave yourself plenty of room to escape. Keep your ass alive and be aware. Any tickets you get doing that, we will pay for them." Never had to use that option though I came close a couple times in Chicago.
What do I associate with a black being a threat? Hair cut. Bling. Inability to dress properly. Tattoos. Number of similarly groomed and dressed people in the area. I figure that I'm in good company when stuff like that makes Jessie Jackson worried.
So my question is if a black man like Jessie Jackson can't discern the difference between a person with black skin and a predatory nigger (big difference) then how are non blacks supposed to tell the difference? It becomes a thing then of the decent blacks (yes they do exist) getting lumped in with criminals and they pay for it.
My daughter taught elementary school for awhile. One year she had first grade children (white, black, brown, yellow - all the colors you could imagine). She asked her class what they wanted to be when they grew up.
White kids: Police, fireman, doctor, nurse, teacher, etc.
Black kids: Pimps and hos.
It took a lot of work for her to convince the black children that the people the white kids wanted to be were better than the pimps and hos the black kids wanted to be. This was about 20 years ago so I suspect that it has gotten much worse since then. Hard to improve when you start out in a hole with reinforced concrete on top of you. Sadder when you consider it was the black kids family that dug the hole, placed the reinforcing rod and poured the concrete.

"12:55 AM posting? Let’s see, here on the east coast that would be 3:55AM, and then 1:55AM and 2:55AM respectively, for the other time zones. Shouldn’t you have been sleeping around this time? What I said really tortured your mind? Good. Then you post again in the same day talking about Black I.Q.?
Just unreal lol. I’m the one feeling sorry for you. You’re a “man” whose up in the wee hours of the night, disturbed by what someone who you’ve never met wrote, and then you run your mouth like a woman?"

People may also work and have time off at varying hours of the day.
Perhaps this thinking is too abstract for people like you...
On the old Southern Pacific Railroad, when a locomotive engineer was new to a particular route, he'd have another engineer, called a "pilot", along to help him get familiar. Affirmative action engineers would be perpetual new guys, and therefore always have another (real) engineer along, for years. The RR figured it was better to pay the guy for doing nothing rather than face a big lawsuit and a consent decree. And certainly better than letting the dope go out and derail a train.
Affirmative action employees get to keep their jobs whether they're competent or not. Employers just have to pay someone else to do their jobs.
