<description>This was an interesting read, I have to agree with Betts when he said that minorities will have the upper hand in major Cooperation. 

 The fact that they will be getting hired because they are a minority, is in a way raciest.

        Nice job Nick

<description>Yes, agreed. To my surprise, there is an actual term used for the racism of non-minorities. &#8216;Reverse discrimination&#8217;, which is completely odd to me.. because doesn&#8217;t this assume that all discrimination must be to a minority in the first place? Isn&#8217;t there some discrimination in that statement itself?
