The Government is the most discriminatory of all

People say we need government to combat discrimination. But in the end, government creates far more discrimination than it eliminates. There are thousands of examples. I will just name a few off the top of my head.

Examples:

  • When government takes tax money and uses it to subsidize only certain vocational fields, such as certain trades. This is discriminatory against people not in those trades who have to pay for their own education.
  • Tax money that supports only females in certain fields. This is discriminatory against men. Especially when the gov pays 90% of their salary.
  • When government automatically gives custody of children to women.
  • When there are programs designed to sponsor people of a certain age only. This is ageist.
  • Government programs to help visible minorities, even ones that outpace whites overall.
  • Preference to bilingual people even when the job interacts very little in the other official language.


This is just briefly off the top of my head. I'm sure if this is open to the public, they could find dozens of specific examples. So one great step in eliminating discrimination would be eliminating government involvement in the economy.
