IP or Indian Preference is also a part of the IHS Indian Health Services hiring guidelines. It is a system that is not based on merit or best qualifications. Working in that type system for over 20 years, I personally observed how it fostered resentment and low performance output. What makes Native Americans a step above Non-Natives to qualify as "stewards" of OUR land and waters? I guess the County Commissioners know more than we do as they seem to lean in that direction...as we will see when they turn our county parks over to the authority of the Tribe and hiring will be under the IP system.

If any business put down specific races that they would only hire, God help you.
