Is the playing field unequal? I many ways I think it is. When we discriminate each other we shift from equality to inequality. When some people have advantages others do not we create hierarchies.
Some of this is unavoidable. Some of this is unfair. Some of this can be very benign and have little consequence.
But some discrimination can have massive consequences.
Racism
Sexism

MASSIVELY

OPPORTUNITY
And one of my favorite examples are tax loopholes.
