With affirmative action I can kinda get the point, to give less privileged kids from areas with worse schools and services another chance.

Rich people paying for their kids to get in isn't a new thing. They got caught, and suddenly everybody is just SHOCKED that our country and the higher ed industry isn't a pure meritocracy.
