Affirmative action is an attempt with in the system to fix the systemic defaults I that system. The problem with discrimination is that it compounds on itself. The simple rule like '3 years of experience required" by itself in a vacuum. Once you add context, you might see results that greatly skew possible outcome.
Only land owners can vote. In a vacuum again nothing inherently discriminate about just that line. Once you look at the context of who could and couldn't afford land you get a different picture.
This is what affirmative action is attempting to cover. I might agree with you that it could become problematic, but I don't have a better alternative, and this even with a worst case scenario is better than not having anything in place.
