If I were to go along with your metaphor I would say what affirmative action is doing is starting with a a car that pulls slightly to the left. Then, instead of taking the car to the mechanic and having the root issue fixed, laws are passed so all roads are rebuilt to consistently meander slightly left so the car can still drive down the road while hitting the gas and not have to course correct the steering wheel to stay on the road.

I.e. it's the wrong solution for the problem, is absurd and makes things worse.

You got the solution? No? Then we just gonna head off into the weeds, like we have for 100 years? Yeah that'd suit many folks just fine. The folks on top, who see any attempt at fairness as 'oppression'.
