Well back in the early 20th century I'm afraid that was mostly what was available to discriminated minorities. It's not just theory, it goes back to railroadmen being pissed blacks were undercutting them. They could not just out

Not sure. I lost about 4 months of work, rest was time where I didn't have other work offered to me so the opportunity cost was 0. But consider if I hired someone, I would lose 30% of my earnings to taxes. And then 50% of what I pay

Same with minimum wage. Whites were tired of blacks underbidding them, so they just outlawed their jobs by making unskilled labor valued below X illegal.

Democracy is 'good' mainly because it represents a vote of who would win a violent fight, and anticipating that, we can bypass all that and just defer to the victors without bloodshed. As means of violence becomes less equal amon

The US has a progressive income taxation so they've counterbalanced that through taxing the balance ultimately via inflation,which is regressive against the cash based poor.

Im suggesting doing different non-analogous things can provide balance. At no point did I assert they must be analogous nor am I obliged to prove your own assumptions.

My claim is that symmetric behavior is balanced. You went on the goose chase dismissing the first example of your entirely different demand, then pretended I never said it. Your argument is a disingenuous fraud.
