I believe that Affirmative Action
was once helpful to society. Since the U.S. has changed majorly from when it
was created there needs to be provisions to the law. I believe that it is
important to help people that need to be helped but it does not necessarily
apply to the group of people that it has in the past. Affirmative Action is
immoral and should no longer exist.
There is no need to help people get
a public job or into a public university. Those people admitted should be
qualified based on their abilities not what race or gender they are. Allowing
people that are less qualified to get the position is not efficient to society
it is immoral. It would make most sense to give it to the most qualified
applicant based on ability not race or gender.
Affirmative Action may have helped
some individuals in the past but also could have hurt people through reverse
discrimination. It is immoral to have to deny someone a position because the
company needs a female or a person of a different race. People may argue that
people of a certain race deserve the position because they are qualified but a
white male may be more qualified for the position and therefore should have the
job. It is immoral giving the job to a person less qualified. Not only does it
hurt the company it also hurts the person being denied.
Times have changed and people that
need assistance get it through other means. Affirmative Action is not helping
society thrive it is hurting society. There might still be discrimination but
Affirmative Action is not helping the cause it might actually be making it
worse.
