I think there are some things ... that may even be distorted in the practice, such as some affirmative action programs becoming quota systems. and i'm old enough to remember when quotas existed in the united states for the purpose of discrimination, and i don't want to see that happen again.

Indicate which principles you support regarding affirmative action and discrimination. 1. the federal government should discontinue affirmative action programs. 2. the federal government should prosecute cases of discrimination in the public sector. 3. the federal government should prosecute cases of discrimination in the private sector.
Government Support Principles
Affirmative action was designed originally for "women and other minorities" but the phrase has become just another tortured euphemism. female conscientiousness and eagerness to please have always made women good students and natural test takers. jews have gloried in scholarship throughout the ages, and asians of both sexes score so high on sats and iq tests that they regard affirmative action as an impediment. affirmative action really means favoritism for blacks for the sake of racial peace, but the favor is pure chimera, and so, increasingly, is the peace.

The way anything is developed is through practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice practice and more practice.
Practice Way
The australian way of affirmative action is setting goals and recognising discrimination and lack of opportunity and deciding to take action and setting some goals and targets. i guess i prefer that language to talking about quotas.
Opportunity Talking Goal
There are tribes, i should say nations, which prior to the aim movement had only ten or fifteen employees, and now have upwards of 2000. there are educational programs that didn't exist before, there are housing programs, health programs, senior citizen programs, cultural programs and the list goes on. it's all because some people stood up and said sovereignty is our right by treaty and the constitution says treaty law is the supreme law of the land.
Senior Educational Law
What i think people should realize is that programs like social security, programs like medicare, programs like the veterans administration, programs like your local park and your local library - those are, if you like, socialist programs; they're run by [and] for the public, not to make money. i think in many ways we should expand that concept so that the american people can enjoy the same benefits that people all over the world are currently enjoying.

We dance for the pure joy of it. in the kitchen to the record player. because we've got it in us. all over ... it's not just in the legs. it comes from inside and runs all through you. in waves. from down below to up above. all the way to the scalp.
