Interesting bit on the free community college plan.quote:Some liberals even joined in the criticism. Because the program is not limited to low-income students, middle-income and even wealthy community-college students could benefit. Donald Heller, dean of Michigan State University's College of Education, told Politico, "Should we really be giving those kids free tuition when their families can pay?" And the Institute for College Access and Success called the proposal "a Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing," arguing that "making tuition free for all students regardless of their income is a missed opportunity to focus resources on the students who need aid the most." Kind of reminds me of the people who complain that affirmative action benefits middle and upper-class minorities.

The Warszawa posted:Interesting bit on the free community college plan. Americans have this weird obsession with "fair play". Now, while we can break down all the reasons why whites are inherently more advantaged than minorities to an absurd degree, all that stuff isn't readily apparent to some one with zero introspection. That's why white people hate AA and why you could never have a plan that made people who can afford it pay while giving it away to the needy. I mean, we do have programs like that but they are massively controversial and create ridiculous cultural memes like "welfare queens" and "the borderline retarded kid who gets into Harvard over literally every white person in the world because he's black".

Public education is the last bastion of socially responsible collectivism in the country where we say "this is an expensive thing that we shall do because it is morally right to do and has a long term benefit to us all" so it makes sense that the GOP is hellbent on dismantling it.

zoux i mean there are people who don't oppose AA they oppose it benefiting minorities from advantaged minority families, like the president during the 08 primaryquote:During a presidential debate in April, Mr. Obama said his two daughters, Malia, 10, and Sasha, 7, “who have had a pretty good deal” in life, should not benefit from affirmative action when they apply to college, particularly if they were competing for admission with poor white students. idk it just seems like either missing the point or conceding bad premises. i mean i don't think he could have said anything else politically but i also don't doubt he believes it.

Funny enough, I'm white as hell but have an 'exotic' first name and I was told after months of not getting job interviews to use my gender-neutral nickname and sure enough the calls came in. loving disappointing and disparaging. E: my boss who was fired last month specifically put 'Mexican-sounding' applications directly into the garbage, as he felt there was too many of them taking white jobs

Yeah that's a well documented phenomenon. quote:The other, however, suggests a black-sounding name remains an impediment to getting a job. After responding to 1,300 classified ads with dummy resumes, the authors found black-sounding names were 50 percent less likely to get a callback than white-sounding names with comparable resumes. Sorry Sharkeshia but this job is going to Kydynlyne.
