Default So it is ok to hire based in skin color

Tesla publishes its first diversity report, here are the key numbers
https://www.cnbc.com/2020/12/04/tesl...y-numbers.html

What happened to looking at one's accomplishments without caring about one's race or gender when hiring?

What rock you been living under. Saw in the news Nasdaq pushing for mandatory lbg/people of color on boards or can't trade on Nasdaq. If you're white and male you ain't getting a job if libtards have their way.

That didn't work out so well in 2008, now did it? Black? Check. Gay? Check. Qualified? Nope, but he's black and gay. Hired.

Based on affirmative action, its basically the law you have to consider skin color when hiring and firing...... which is the exact opposite of that whole Ihave a dream speach.

It all started with Affirmative Action established by JFK in 1971. It really upset my grandfather as he saw it as forcing him to hire certain people. He had mostly blacks working for him in the produce business. He had one white man (a relative) working his poultry farm.

The day after JFK's speech, my grandfather was discussing this with a friend on the front porch. He started suffering from a heart attack at that time and died before he got to the hospital.

and, that kind of activity in Milwaukee is why we are going to suffer through Bidens term as president. I pray it is only one term for any democrat. biden will be gone in three months.

JFK was an amazing president - still making an impact 8 years after his death.

Sorry to hear that
I'm guessing that we are the only race/culture to enact something like affirmative action in 14000 years of mankind
I'm sure there is a reason why no one else ever did

The look you get when you tell your liberal friends that you hope their daughter or granddaughter get to meet Biden personally.
