Quotas are being pushed majorly in both education and job. This is done by crony politicians and vested interest at the expense of someone who works hard and not part of that “preferred” class or group. Your chances to get into college will skyrocket, not based on your actual abilities, but based on what is your gender, what is the color of your skin and if you claim to be a “refugee”. Do you think, we should have quotas based on race, gender etc? https://www.cnn.com/2019/10/26/us/somali-refugee-director-seattle-clinic-trnd/index.html
I believe some segment of society have faced structural discrimination historically, which has lead to them being less represented. Quotas can help fix that. There are gems hidden within these groups that wouldn't be discovered otherwise
To some extent I agree it's a mere political gimmick; but if it can help repressed nations. I am all for it!
I am curious; what purpose does this post serve? It seems like you aren't happy for the underprivileged development. Here is what will happen- a set of humans from blind will take this opportunity to defame and pass slanderous comments against women, race and the underprivileged. Isn't that how blind functions? Everyone here thinks WIIFM!
The purpose of the post is to perpetuate the fiction among the ignorant and disingenuous that education and employment quotas exist and are constitutional.
"Your chances to get into college will skyrocket, not based on your actual abilities, but based on what is your gender, what is the color of your skin and if you claim to be a “refugee”. --------> sounds otherwise to me.
Diversity is such a skewed word. It really means let’s hire more black and Hispanic people who may or may not actually be competent at their jobs. Asians? Naa fuck them
No, diversity is saying let's break the monotony of approach and thought at the workplace.

Education and employment quotas have been unconstitutional in the U.S. since 1978. The quota claim is only pushed by the disingenuous to outrage the ignorant.
