So, I'm guessing you missed my point -- to wit, that her color is irrelevant to the build quality, meaning that the employer has no appeal to real-world issues in defending their hiring practices if such are racist.

What matters to me is that a non-bigot should not have to do research in order to avoid funding bigotry. What matters to me is that everyone in this country should have an equal opportunity to land a job.
If you don't want to hire black folk in your business, buy a Congressman and get done with it.

And you seem very comfortable with that approach.

Bullshit and applebutter. You cry at the first sight of resistance against your dear little faith, whining and moaning like a five-dollar whore.

If that would not solve our problems. Granted it didn't 100 years ago when the man owned everything, but now I think we have an eccletic base that could both serve the biggots and the rest alike. so why not let 'evolution' decide what is fit for humanity and what is not. Our philosiphical approach is obviously not working. It only leads to more govermental oversight.
Yeah, you answered your own question, and aren't smart enough to realize it. In the Gilded Age of laissez-faire capitalism, we had racist hiring, child-labor abuse, events like the Triangle Shirtwaist fire. I'm a recovering libertarian, and I certainly agree that that government is best which governs least, but the fact is that as society gets more complex, least is necessarily a rising variable.
I don't think you get it. But then again, you're on record advocating slavery as a good thing, so it's not like you're a terribly thoughtful person.
