Math simple, but message muffled.
I don't understand what you're saying.

But I think it's probably relevant to point out on hiring that employers can hire only those who apply. Even programs intended to encourage applicants can be successful only to the extent that qualified people decide to fill out the forms.

The problem for me is that I can't see a well defined reason to think that the current situation is broken. There may be differences between the current situation and what we'd see if something in IT operated better, but no one has explained with evidence what the "good" outcome should be.
