RACIST JOBMARKET!!

People, then explain the stats. We're not talking about some low-level, lowpaying job, we're talking about good, high-paying job. If you guys like wallowing in your mediocrity, then go ahead, wallow as much as you want. We're talking about the big honchos, not some small fry manager nobody cares about. 68% of Americans happen to be non-hispanic Whites(if you include Hispanic Whites as well, the number is higher), but 90+% of CEOs are Whites. Go figure. If America were truly colorblind, then you wouldn't see this big divide I just pointed out. All you people relying on anecdotes to bolster your point might wanna explain to us all why most of these CEOs are Whites, and not Asians or Blacks. You want us to believe that there is no racism in America just because of your anecdotes? Give me a frigging break. As I said, there are tons of Asians who went to Harvard and all the good schools out there, but most of them just seem to pass out of existence. Here's what Asians do to "prove" that they're truly successful in America: they make a list of all Asians who made it big in the corporate world. Do you guys see what's wrong with this picture? If Asians are really so successful, there would be no need for a list. I'd probably have to write a book if I were to list all White and Jewish bigwigs. Plus, I would like to see a study where Asians who graduated from college are compared to Whites who graduated from college in terms of annual salary. Wanna bet that if these two groups were compared, Whites would come out on top? As I said before, the reason why Asians appear to be more successful than Whites is due to the simple fact that there are more Asians who go to college than there are Whites who do the same. Last I check, only 30% of Whites end up going to college, but 30% is still a huge number--no way can Asians compete with that. Face it, as you climb up the ladder, the color is more and more lily white with no asians around in sight. In terms of standard deviation, I say Whites are more spread out, while asians cluster more tightly. Plus, some of the people complaining are insiders and I believe them 100%. Hmm, come to think of it maybe I need to think a bit more about affirmative action.
