... We had a debate on affirmative action in my government class (two college teams of four each debate; we all are required to do one of the seven debates); during the question and answer session, I came up with a wonderful means of avoiding discrimination (which I later found out HAS already been implemented by some companies).

Ok, affirmative action, in its best form, can be seen as counteracting discrimination; it is psychologically viable that we like to hire those who are similar to us; and since the huge majority of American business owners are white men, there lies the problem.

However, what if during the hiring process, there were NO way of telling gender, race, sexual orientation, etc? Idealistically, the employer hiring the person would see none of these, or things such as name, address, etc. (which can sometimes give clues as to nationalities, etc., as my friend pointed out). The interview would be conducted via instant messenging software, thus avoiding discrimination.

Thus, we avoid discrimination AND reverse discrimination.


Bismarck once said "Fools say they like to learn from their experiences, but I prefer to learn from the experience of others."

"Move that one of your pieces, which is in the worst plight, unless you can satisfy yourself that you can derive immediate advantage by an attack." -Adolph Anderssen
