[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it is a stupid question with a lot of stupid answers here. Vet preference is simply a category that gives preference based on military service to the US, which started as preference for vets discharged on account of having been wounded or disabled as a result of their service. It is in some sense transactional, a special duty regarded as being owed to veterans.[/quote] Affirmative action was in many ways the same. A way for the government to make up for things like leaving black soldiers and their families out of the GI bill, which is widely credited with boosting an entire generation of poor white people into the middle class while leaving blacks in poverty. This is something very much owed to black Americans for a whole lot of reasons. You can keep trying to rationalize your preferred form of DEI to advance your racist agenda, but we see through it.
