When colleges like @Harvard under attack for affirmative action, announce:

"In consideration of the concerns about benefits to particular communities in admissions, we are ending all benefits to the children of legacies & contributors. These applicants did nothing but be born."
...next day, rich conservatives will storm the gates of the colleges, screaming "we want even our unqualified kids to stomp over everyone else! It's only fair we get EVERY benefit in society!"
THIS IS NOT HAPPENING....I am saying, with conservatives attacking schools over affirmative action, colleges should respond by going after the worst affirmative action of all: The ones given to kids simply for being born to wealthy families.
