Can someone explain to me why affirmative action is necessary? Why not just send in your GPA and let a computer check which school you can go to based on your preference? Why resort to low-key racism?

Low-income junior high-schools of course needs more money from the government than the high-income schools to combat equality issues. Because let's face it, it's the low-income people that struggle and always will, money IS power.

If you don't implement affirmative action, you'll be accused of racism (due to the uneven final result of a blind GPA filter or equivalent).
