5. I agree, but "veteran" is not the main category. Now "WOMAN" or "NON-WHITE" I believe are.

I think that a White veteran won't have problems unless they are liberal. Probably gay white veterans won't have a problem right off the bat, but later when the purging has been going on for a while, yes.

If the administration goes after the marriage equality bill, which I really believe they will, then the gays will be purged. But after the women and non-whites. Non-whites being Asians like Vivek. I think he figured it out.

Do I know anything? Nope. but being 77 male I have see where we were when I was young in South Arkansas. How much progress has been made. How much that progress changed the world. And how the ones who never changed hated and resented those changes.

I have known plenty of workers in tech and other high learning fields lost out to the B1B's, MaInly because the H1B's cost the companies less money and were easier to get rid of when the job was over. But I saw a company I used to work with have to bring large groups of software auditors to check remove the backdoors that the H1B's built into their code.

We as a nation are going to drop in standing, and maybe rightfully so. I really do not think we should be looking to be the standard for excellence any more.
