- notch656a 4y agoThe beauty of capitalism is the process that farms for the most net value extracted from the employees is more favored to win. I'm all for competitor companies hiring based on diversity (aka progressive-approved racism) , it creates market opportunities for the firms I work for.
- peter422 4y agoPerfect, so you have no problem with Microsoft having this policy! Problem solved.
- notch656a 4y agoI don't follow the logic that suggests that because I have no personal problem, a problem doesn't exist.
- psd1 4y agoSplendid, we agree. I'm expensively-educated but not particularly talented. Inner-city kids who are smarter than me don't have anything like my opportunities. I have no personal problem, but a problem exists.

- fsniper 4y agoNo, you go and fix the social inequalities and trickle that up. You can't trickle down equality by introducing more "positive" inequality
