Affirmative Action here forever

a quick poll on this forum is hardly representative

Why not? It would be representative of a segment of the population. And dare I say that most of the people on this forum are probably pretty well educated, and do not form part of the brainwashed masses.

Would you agree that the population in abject poverty is growing?

I have no knowledge of the size of the population in poverty, so I can't comment on the matter, but I will look into it and see if we can get some results

Go here. Click on "Advanced search". See the option for selecting AA positions only. All local job search engines have that option, implying that your explanation is not in sync with whats happening in the "real world".

I think extermin8or lives in fantasy world where internet searches and links defines existence. The real world is a much different place.

you would know that this forum, while entertaining, is not representative of our society, nor has any influence on the country

Unemployment grew while average wage increases was below inflation. I guess it's reasonable to assume that the population of abject poverty stricken citizens is indeed growing.

I have yet to see an explanation for the low unemployment rate among whites ? or a proper explanation of how AA shuts out people from jobs

Really? I thought that the purpose of this forum was to fight broadband costs. Are you saying that we're wasting our time?

Actually data collated by statsSA shows that the unemployment rate is dropping - latest figures I have is that it dropped from 26.5% in March 2005 to 25.6% in March 2006

I would rather base my beliefs on facts unlike you who bases them on little figments of the imagination

And what do the stats say about the number of people that stopped looking for work? Once again you use twisted stats in your assumption :rolleyes: I don't even know why I bother with you anymore.

Maybe because a significant number of whites leave the country straight after their studies, thus they don't even enter the job market locally. If you consider the amount of whites in other countries, it might account for the "low" unemployment rate compared to others.
 
that rate has also been dropping

unemployed people available to work but not actively looking for work - had also continued to fall, from about 3.82-million (13% of the country's working-age population) in March 2005 to about 3.68-million (12.3%) in March 2006.

No, the amount of whites in the country, outnumber the whites who have left the country, so that argument holds no water

What facts? Your government sanctioned statistics are not facts. Your little internet links are not facts. I live in the real world, where people are being denied access to jobs based on skin colour, where white parents are being retrenched in favour of Black 'youngbloods', where crime is an out of control problem, where I do not sleep peacefully and where my kids are not black enough or white enough to have a future in this country. So, stick to your so-called facts, all it will mean is that you remain as stupid and dumb as you try and make everyone else to be. You really are the definition of an Internet Troll. But I guess people like you are always right. I would hate to actually know you personally - most people tend to hate the "know it alls"

How many people are living in the country?

So if say, 49% leave it still won't "hold water" as the majority is still in the country? Sure.
