On the O'Reilly Factor today, Conservative author Bernard Goldberg gave an ingenious solution that would satisfy both sides of the affirmative action debate. White Americans who really believe America would be a better place with affirmative action should give up their jobs on the condition that the person who replaces them is not white.
If they are serious about their desire for "justice" they would have no problem with offering their job, after all, many people have given a lot more for civil rights. When you think about it most of them would not even have to give up their jobs. All they need to do is offer to give up their job and once racial equity has been established in the workplaces across America the remaining liberals can keep their jobs.
I would be curious to hear what objections white proponents of affirmative action would have to this plan, it would change America forever and give minorities the equity in the workplace they have long sought.
If the left does object to this it will confirm what I have always suspected about them, they don't mind using the government to force other people to sacrifice for their ideological beliefs, as long as they don't have to sacrifice anything.
I suspect we will see fierce attacks on both Goldberg and his idea by the left without actually addressing why they oppose it. The reason being that Goldberg's plan, whether serious or not, exposes the left for exactly what they are, and they won't let that stand without demonizing the man and the idea without actually addressing the particulars.
