I don't really have an opinion either way, I haven't studied or thought about it enough.

Way worse than red lining, grandfather laws, mandatory minimum sentences, and allowing profit into prisons. Not to mention outright segregation. Yes, weighting standardized tests on certain non-intellectual professions to consider cultural influences is definitely the most divisive, damaging, regressive, bigoted, and insulting policies ever.

I just had to come back and revisit this. I haven't been on PaRD that much lately so I haven't really been exposed to opinions like this in awhile. People are so much more reasonable off of the internet. Posts like the quoted really let those extra chromosomes out to play.

I think the term is usually "green with envy" but "yellow with envy" seems more appropriate here.
