glass ceiling

Why have we continued to use this glass ceiling affect in order to deny equal opportunities for women and minorities. There is no reason that they cannot run businesses just as effectively as the white males who currently control that vast majority of businesses and political positions. The white males in charge are afraid that if any power or authority is given to women or minorities, that they will in turn lose their own power and authority. They are threatened by the change that will come and are attempting to hold out as long as possible as a last ditch effort to keep themselves in charge. Things are have changed for the better in the past few decades and will continue to do so, hopefully leading towards a new and equal world.
