The revenue of the entire “discrimination lawsuit” industry rests upon two assertions:
1) That there is no statistically meaningful difference between ethnic populations, as far as intelligence (or any other factor determining success)is concerned, and therefore
2) Any statistical disparity between two groups MUST be due to illegal discrimination, which must be remedied by government action.
If it is recognized that statistically significant differences DO exist between groups, then the entire basis for the discrimination industry goes away, and the lawyers will have to find some other source of income. They do NOT want to do that.
Where else are they going to go to? Studying Contract or Constitutional Law?
They don't have the ability to do it. A grievance merchant is a grievance merchant plan and simple.
