| This is the group that is suffering most from two other policies
| that Mr. Buchanan attacks, to the embarrassment of Washington
| conservatives: Affirmative Action and immigration. Affirmative
| Action--code for racial quotas in employment-- has put politics in
| command of large parts of the American economy without a peep from
| those economists who are scandalized by the thought of tariffs,
| although these are just another form of tax. Immigrants,
| predominantly from the Third World, who are immediately eligible for
| affirmative action quotas, are at record levels.
