Well, one of the ATC controllers in Austin last week was apparently a black guy. So that DEI worked out well. Hit those quota's, Petey. Transportation is getting more exciting than ever, under his watchful eye!
The only black controller caused that incident?
Reading comprehension fail.
Also, I remember the computer failure one fine morning last month leading to a nationwide flight shutdown. That was fun, but the FAA prioritized diversity in their budget, yay!
And yes, Obama did dumb down the FAA,
because the FAA/ATC were 'too white.' So, to be fair,
some of this predates the chest feeder secretary:
Quote:
"The system was designed to choose the best, and for decades it worked," Carlson said.
But then the Obama administration decided it wasn't working the way liberals wanted it to.
"Activist bureaucrats decided that the pool of air traffic wasn't diverse enough," Carlson said. "They never explained why diversity ought to matter in air traffic control, or why it was more important than traditional goals like competence and public safety."
But still things changed.
The FAA now uses a "biographical questionnaire" to screen applicants, which is apparently intended to increase the number of minorities who qualify for the jobs. What the questionaire scoring system rewards and penalizes is, as Carlson put it, "shocking."
The questionnaire favors applicants who performed poorly in science class in high school and have not held a job for three years before applying to the FAA, Carlson said. ("Apparently, unemployed people make the best air traffic controllers," he added. "This is demented, by the way, but it's real.")
The government shouldn't be prioritizing/favoring any job hires based on 'biographical' questions that somehow benefit those who haven't had a job for 3 years or did poorly in science.
Never, ever vote for a democrat. Our lives could depend on it.
