Some of the less controversial Crossfire topics have finally been relocted to the General Board.
PS: It's Election Day. If you live in the United States, don't forget to vote.

The only good thing that came of Michigan's election day is that we got rid of "Affirmative Action" forever.
...we still have our current governor dragging us through the muck?
How did she win the election? Easy.
Granholm: "No limit on Welfare."
DeVos: "Maximum term being on welfare if you are capable of employment."
I am now waiting for us to be annexed by Canada.

In my Biz Law, we just spoke of Affirmative Actiont. My prof, who happens to be an African American thinks race shouldn't be the factor; it should be social, cultural, academic factors. Who deserves special treatment: the black suburban kid whose parents have advanced degreees, or the poor white kid from the Appalachian Mtns whose parents didn't finish HS & who lives w/o central heat or running water?
Also, wasn't some man from the Vampire Party running for Governor?

Yeah, I was referring to the fact that there should be NO law that says you have to hire so many minorities. Equal opportunity employment is a LAW. If there is a law that says that you should give the job to the best qualified REGARDLESS of race, gender, or creed...then Affirmative Action is moot....and asinine. Also, wasn't some man from the Vampire Party running for Governor? Yeah....I took care of that. (Insert Belmont joke here)

I'm sure everyone thought it was funny, I know I did, but at the time I think everybody was kinda busy.
