But racism isn't defined by or limited to refusal to trade with certain individuals. That is to say economics is only one intersection in the set of racist behavior present in our society, eliminating those economic inequality does not solve structural inequality. Furthermore, it's so important to demographics in the midwest that they're able to refuse service to individuals they perceive as 'others' that laws have been created protecting economic discrimination. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religious_Freedom_Restoration_Act_(Indiana) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religious_Freedom_Restoration_... Anecdotally, There's a pizza place in Indiana that went on the news and clearly stated they refuse to service to gay couples. The pizza store owners then raised $800,000 from kickstarter. While it's definitely an anecdote, I think it shows that discrimination can actually be quite profitable.
