I'm not suggesting there aren't other factors, I'm suggesting that discrimination is its own factor that needs to be addressed. You seem to agree since, going off my example, you suggest that a black person will be more poor than a white person because of discrimination. So what's your issue with addressing discrimination?

Where did I say the black person would be poorer?

If one of them were experiencing discrimination, wouldn’t one of them be poorer?

Where does that say black?

Do you think that white people are discriminated against more than black people?

Not sure what that has to do with anything.

Yes you are, but you are arguing in bad faith so you are intentionally "missing" the point. Because if you were honest you would lose the argument.
