They are suppose to treat us all equally right.
Can we list how government in fact doesn't.
Come to find out governments discriminate in most all their decisions.

I will start...

On the local level. Improvements in impoverished areas to the infrastructure, are last on the schedule, or non-existent.

Men are discriminated against, with the chamber of commerce, when starting and opening a business.




Keep it going, to show what needs to be corrected, so we are all treated the exact same by our elected officials.

Affirmative Action is discriminatory.

There should be no positive or negative racism, sexism, etc., from Government.

Children are not allowed to drink, smoke or screw anyone over the age of consent. Nor can they work in a business.

Property taxes increase gentrification and force people out of the neighborhoods in which they have deep roots.

On a side note, have you encountered many back issues sitting in the confessional for so many hours listening to the church members?

Sorry, couldn't help myself.

The wealth is discriminated for having a higher % of their income taken. Or is it the poor, that are discriminated against for thinking they cannot pay the % the wealthy do.

They pay for food and housing for some, but not others.

I always felt that the USA discriminated against minorities starting businesses. With all of the crazy regulations, red tape, and liscenses they need to acquire, the deck is heavily stacked against anyone who wants to start their own business as a minority. I also found that VCs work pretty heavily with the government, and they use the government to keep competition concealed. I'm glad more funding mechanisms are in place for small businesses, but I can see the government interfering with things like crowd funding as well.

Unfortunately I think if someone wants to become a fund manager or an asset manager, you're going to have to deal with the government to some extent. And I feel they heavily put things in favor of whites and jews, and somewhat marginalize other minority groups. And I think being a fund manager allows you to actually invest in many different types of businesses.

Banks are also pretty discriminatory in the USA.

The IRS discriminates against Republicans, all government controlled agencies discriminate against whites in admissions and jobs.
