I understand that laws should be made in a more democratic and representative way but traditionally the capitalist enterprises are fascist in nature. They are governed by a top-down authoritative hierarchy that is not democratic nor representative. The employees don't elect their bosses and the business owners don't hire their employees based on representativity or diversity but based on skills. So if an enterprise functions in an area where 60% of the people have no college diplomas, I find it strange to put pressure on that enterprise to have 60% of its employees without diplomas and I find at least as strange to put pressure on 60% of people in that area to get diplomas in order to be better represented in a particular enterprise or sector.

I don't particularly see a point to making sure that we continue with fascist practices in specific sectors of our lives. If democracy, and consequently diversity, is a good thing for our legal system, then why is it a bad thing for our corporate structure?
- leaveyou 12y agoYour intentions are noble but the implementation is tricky. The last time (I know) someone changed in mass the way people get hired was during communism when the enterprises hired people primarily based on social class, party affiliation and family ties rather than merit and skill and you know how it ended.
- GFK_of_xmaspast 12y agoSupreme laffo if you don't think people hire in this country based on social class and family ties (c.f. all those studies where identical resumes get called back at different rates depending on the presumed race/gender of the applicant, also "looks like Zuckerberg")
