Diversity to me simply means "We don't hire the best; we hire based on skin color and sex except for white males."QuakerOats;1818247 wrote:The Environmental Protection Agency is looking to hire 15 “Diversity and Inclusion Specialists,” each of whom will make $100,000 or more per year.
The agency will hire employees to set up diversity and inclusion “advisory bodies” across the country, according to a government job posting.
“Earth Day is every day at EPA!” the agency said. “At EPA, you can protect human health and the environment of all Americans, and you’ll discover that EPA is one great place to work!”
“We offer great benefits and work flexibilities, and our diverse workforce connects to more than just a career—we share a common passion to promote a cleaner, healthier environment,” the EPA said.
The salary range for Diversity and Inclusion Specialists is between $99,785 and $146,570 per year. If all 15 positions are filled, the hires would cost taxpayers between $1,496,775 and $2,198,550 each year.
The employees will be in charge of implementing a “diversity strategy” within the EPA’s Office of Research and Development. Other duties include analyzing recruitment and retention, as well as setting up diversity and inclusion advisory boards.
The hires will “initiate collaborative efforts between Minority Academic Institutions and EPA Special Emphasis Program Managers to establish an ORD diversity and inclusion advisory body,” the agency said.
The EPA is accepting applications until Thursday to fill full-time positions across the country, including Washington, D.C., Florida, Georgia, Michigan, Minnesota, Oregon, Virginia, North Carolina, New Jersey, Oklahoma, Nevada, and Rhode Island.
Simply disgusting. The EPA remains one of the greatest threats to freedom we face.
I really don't care who I work with as long as they are the best candidate. If that means I'm the only white guy in a room full of Egyptian women, then so be it. It's really quite absurd and racist to have these programs. -

LOL ---- you are supporting the very candidate who will give us more of the same nonsense; in fact she will be forcing you to accept more of the same nonsense. Way to go. -

Because the other option is Trump. I know it's hard for you to understand since you're so far to the right but there is a large population of moderates/Independents (we'll find out how large Nov 8th) that would have loved to vote for just about anyone over HRC. But the Republican party went ahead and found the one person we'd all like even less.QuakerOats;1818281 wrote:LOL ---- you are supporting the very candidate who will give us more of the same nonsense; in fact she will be forcing you to accept more of the same nonsense.

I believe your frustration is misplaced. Don't be mad at voters like myself or sleeper who will begrudgingly vote in that status-quo. Be mad at the party/people that gave us no acceptable alternative.
The Office of the President is frankly better than both of these clowns. Many of us just find one to be less of an embarrassment to America than the other. Hillary is awful no argument here but she at least carries herself in a Presidential manner, Donald does not. I'd have the same feeling if the CEO of the company I worked for behaved like a frat boy in a 70 year old mans body. The image you project matters when you're in a role of gravitas. -

There's a lot of things I don't like about HRC. Unfortunately, the GOP decided to give me DJT as the alternative and he's a flippin' idiot.
I'll take corrupt garbage over Trump any day of the week. -

He won the primary against every candidate that "the party" trotted out. Are you suggesting the republican party deny democracy at work, as the democrat party did?
Trump also received over a million more primary votes than anyone in history; he even received more votes finishing second in Ohio than Hillary did in winning the Ohio primary.
He is obviously not my favorite, nor most people's favorite, but on the most important issues that are most important to the future of the nation, he is a million times better than the corrupt criminal that the democrat operatives chose.
I will certainly subordinate my personal 'feelings' about him, and do what my brain says for the good of the country.
Good luck. -

There's a good chance because of Trump they will lose the Presidency, the Senate, and the House. This will be a good lesson for the GOP; change or die. -

Funny how the complete opposite is true. Either the dems change and abandon their Marxist policies (mislabeled as Progressive to fool the masses), or they die. -

So, Nancy Pelosi and all the rest of the establishment democrats may get the boot.
I don't think anybody has the power to knock her off of her throne. But, I hope I'm wrong! We'll find out in a week or so! -

Tim Ryan is at least a NEO guy. Anyone see stuff about the Ellison dude for DNC they are promoting? He's more sketch and racist than Bannon or anyone else associated with Trump.
