Basically, affirmative action is a set of laws that create things like quotas for how many minority groups must be hired and working in the workplace. Blacks will often get hired at predominantly white workplaces and slack off/call off, etc. because they know they can't be fired unless they do something illegal, or become more unprofitable than it would be to go through the processes of removal and rehiring. And because in so many non-skilled jobs, there isn't great pay, they don't mind getting fired, because they can just collect unemployment for 6 months, which, in my area, is $425/week.

And of course, all the hardworking blacks that can't find a job have it even harder, because so many of their people are in jobs that they should have been fired from, so once the quota is met, employers just stop hiring them, for fear that they too will slack off.

One of the many reasons we need to work towards something like ethnostates if we want liberty.
