The only way affirmative action makes 'logical' sense to me is if people believe in biological differences of intelligence between races. Not saying I believe this, but it's the only way I could think of to logically allow for AA.
Because now you have "Race A" paying the same tax rates for public university as "Race B", yet their children could be biologically limited (on average) in comparison.

- dahwolf 3y agoWe'll never know because it's a taboo topic. So we'll just pretend that almost every aspect of our body has racial differences due to populations being exposed to different environments/conditions and evolving to adapt, yet magically this one organ, the brain, is perfectly steady across time and location. Regardless, it's probably a "close enough" call and culture might be a larger factor. Which one can also only selectively talk about. For example, everybody knows why Asians outperform whites: performance culture and work ethic.
