AA+ DOESN'T WORK
My whole working life was clouded by Affirmative Action. The only positive I got out of it was allowing the black guys fuck it all up and I'd go in on premium time to fix it.
Affirmative Action (AA+) is a quota system. The only way to do it is with numbers. Numbers don't lie. After 40 years, dumb black people are still dumb. You need to know how to read and write to get into Harvard. The smart ones would have made it, regardless, and in many ways AA+ held them back. All the help in the world with the vast majority of, esp., urban black people, was a waste. So many are un-educatable. The Chicago Teachers Union is an easy target for vitriol, but the clay they are tasked to mold is rock hard. The teachers are demoralized spiritually. They know it. They have an impossible job. The police knew it, they quit and went to Arizona or Missouri with their early pensions. I don't blame them. AA+ destroyed the CPD, a public job, IMO, that must be based on merit. I've been told by a Lt. in the Chicago Fire Department that the black guys in the Firehouse don't ever put themselves at risk. They stand on the sidewalk with a hose and listen to the screams, he said. That's their choice.
The business world was corrupted even further by AA+. I saw it from the ground level. In public works, sealed bidding was destroyed at the taxpayers expense because the contractor would have to carry a minority "junior" contractor on the job. There is a black business mafia and it's always the same handful of guys at the top tied to the politicians. They quickly figured out how to make big money with such a "busing" solution to a non-existent problem. As a 'partner', they would find a half-bright minority guy, set him up in business, pick up the payroll and provide the tools. He would be HNIC and it would quickly go to his head. He becomes a complete asshole terrorizing his employees making a difficult job dangerous. His 30% minority contractor, Wakanda Electric, works along with the rest, causing friction and petty fights on the job. Basically, they were there to fuck shit up by their stupidity and lack of common sense requiring the Contractor to fix the problem billing the State for 'extras'. It became ouroboros, the snake eating it's tail. Along with the fact of featherbedding these mooks finding easy jobs for them that doesn't demand much thinking, many don't have a clue in what they are doing no matter serving an apprenticeship or how long in the trade. Someone has to pick their tab.
I want the Obama Center built with black tradespeople from Project Manager to Apprentice Trainee Assistant. It would never get done.
Women are divisive. They do not belong in the trades, unless they do. Meaning, you get your respect by how you work on the job side by side. The neighboring local jurisdiction I often worked recruited from the Pink Slipper lesbian bar. Never had a problem with any of those gals. The ones who brought the donuts or insisted on a clean shithouse blew my skirt up. What do you think no one has ever howled to the General Contractor about the dirty plastic shithouses before? And you get your own private lavatory with a lock and key, Princess? Working along these complainiacs it's easy to discern their game is to find someone else to do their work. Their ambition is the clipboard and the ability to boss people around, which they don't do well. They are hard partners to carry, "got spurs on", we used to say. We'd try to share the load by passing her around on assignments Being a bitch boy is a long day, but one has to suck it up for the team. The key was to find the right BB for her. If a romance develops, nothing but personnel problems are ahead.
Affirmative Action was instigated by the social engineers of the University of Chicago who work for the People who rule over us. It was designed to divide the working class: Black vs. White, Men against Women, young opposing old on a day by day, hour by hour basis building resentment at the shop floor level, it only grows. I am a deep witness to that statement and can back it up fully with my life. A huge reason for the present day dis-organized labor is the result of AA+.
Don't look for help from any institution, they have all been corrupted, leafing down, top heavy with stupid people.
There isn't anyone special in this country. Getting the G to be your strongarm bully because you can't sell your case is cowardly. Similar to hiring someone to kill your wife.
AA+, good riddance.
