"Affirmative Action is based on curent need. "
the problem is there is no need. Thus AA should not exsist.
"If anyone actually thinks there are no significant obstacles to minority progress in America today, then they are sticking their head in the ground. "
LOL, brim then I would say you need to get out more. The only detirment I see to them is they 1. dont' want to work and get paid for it 2. dont have the drive to go get a job and want to get paid for it or 3. are competing in an employers market where there is a surplus of workers with higher skills as them and they cry foul just becuase they don't get hired.
"a) AA was not created to generate quotas."
Thats a load and you know it.
"If such lawsuits are sometimes filed frivolously or otherwise used as leverage, then ending affirmative action will not do anything whatsoever to end this"
Yes it will because then the employer can show someone was better at the job. Now according to AA a lesser skilled employee must be hired due to race. I've seen it happen pretty much all my life.
"makes me want to dig in my heels more and provide blank check support for AA than getting a sense that opposition to AA is part of a vague resentment of pro-minority politics in general."
ahh..not a true position but a reactionary one, gotta love those kind of people *sigh*
