Affirmative Action was the misleading name for a discriminatory hiring practice in the late 20th Century that allowed unqualified non-white people to be hired for a job instead of qualified white people. This unsuccessful and unnecessary social program was eagerly employed by stupid and scared American employers who were afraid to demand federal and state tax money to educate and train these non-white people so they would be qualified.
Another misnomer for Affirmative Action was Equal Opportunity which suggested that qualified non-white people would be given the same chance for a job as qualified white people. But, since this idea had virtually nothing wrong with it and was applauded by just about all Americans, it was not as successful as Affirmative Action, which forced people to march to a government tune instead of freely doing what the government wanted them to do anyway.
Affirmative Action was the second stupidest social program the federal government ever made into law, next to Prohibition, both of which proved to hard-working Americans and Americans who wished they had the opportunity to work hard, that letting Uncle Sam secure the American Dream for you will only backfire and leave you holding your hat in your hand.
