I'm actually doing a project about this right now in my Law class. With that said, I'm against it. I think no matter what happens, the person who is best fit for a job or whatever the case may be, should be the one who is chosen. Affirmative action basically just reverses the discrimination.

I am leaning toward being against affirimitve action. Simply becauseI feel that it eliminates the need to work hard and be the best at something.

I'm a minority and I'm against it. If you give me a job just because I belong to a particular minority then you cheapen my accomplishments as an individual.

I'm with lk. If someone suits and satisfies the job, then why deny them of it? Against is where i stand. |

If i'm hired to fill a quota, than who's gonna take the time to eval me for a raise? |

Agreed 100%. The person better qualified or more experienced should get the job. |

I'm against it, I shouldn't be put aside for a job because of my skin color, in favor for someone less qualified or that belong to the politically correct word "minority" the real word illegal immigrant orpeople who aren't white. I don't apply for jobs I'm not qualified to work in, therefore if your qualified to work all power to you if your not go do something else. I hate being labeled as white, Italian's aren't even white, our orgins are from Africa for Christ sakes.
