When she decided to build a school, the Mississippi-born/Baltimore-honed/Chicago-enriched woman looked at her origins, then travelled a quarter of a planet away to teach "leadership".

In terms of appearance the invaders looked down upon the conquered - and also some of their habits too - this is why caste is such an engrained strong taboo. It is a distant memory of those far off times. The rationale for it has largely gone, (all Indians are so mixed after 3000 years that they look basically the same), but the taboo persists.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-57770385055377833332012-10-08T11:32:20.109-07:002012-10-08T11:32:20.109-07:00http://www.cato-at-liberty.org/0-55-of-every-consu...http://www.cato-at-liberty.org/0-55-of-every-consumer-dollar-spent-on-imports-from-china-goes-to-u-s-transporters-wholesalers-and-retailers/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-1525420015107277272012-10-08T11:30:12.417-07:002012-10-08T11:30:12.417-07:00While Affirmative Action is threatened?

Affirmative Action like Forced Busing is completely unpopular with the electorate and yet it marches on from strength to strength, year after year. The Bakke decision was nothing more than a speed bump for it. It is being imposed by universities and companies without explicit government threats that they should do so. It also has a huge indirect effect of killing aptitude testing in the country because no test worth anything doesn't produce "disparate impact". BTW, Thomas Sowell has been pointing out that preferential policies have always been hijacked by elites in every country that has them, including the US and he has been pointing it out since the mid-1980's.

India's program, begun in colonial times by the British, is the oldest in the world and became constitutional in 1947 by the 14th amendment. <br /><br />India's politicians, like those in every other affirmative action country, promised that the programs would be limited in both duration and scope. In India's case this was to be 20 years. But the programs are inevitably extended and expanded to include other groups.<br /><br />This may be the reason why we don't have "untouchable americans" yet. Increased demographic fragmentation due to immigration will no doubt hasten the creation of an "untouchable" group here. It seems to be a factor in India of creating one there: without a dominant culture to keep a check on the reasonableness of affirmative action, every group increasingly vies for more government set asides at the expense of the nation as a whole (consider that India has hundreds of languages and dialects, and according to Sowell, the most widely spoken language is only spoken by 1/3 the population).<br /><br />The United States by contrast has one of the youngest and least affirmative action systems in the world.<br /><br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-38539691831250542662012-10-08T09:37:06.224-07:002012-10-08T09:37:06.224-07:00affirmative action laws stir up and maintain inter...affirmative action laws stir up and maintain interracial hard feeling, thus inhibiting interracial mixing and breeding, thus maintaining differences over generations, thus helping those at the top to divide and conquer.<br />PropagandistHackerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00032093796955347846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-61981923410555910902012-10-08T09:17:11.941-07:002012-10-08T09:17:11.941-07:00Good point in the last sentence, Steve.
