    Redundancies are not usually accepted into law, as a matter of jurisprudence.

    I think the fear is that sb403 would have ended up with a lot of allegations of caste discrimination when there was none, specifically in situations where bitter employees are upse…

    It is accounted for: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unruh_Civil_Rights_Act "...the unlawful discrimination is in part based on a person's sex, race, color, religion, * ancestry* ...…

    My mistake - yes this makes sense. If they install an EV charger at every single gas station that would be fantastic.

    Doesn't this mean that everyone who owns a gas car right now needs to by an EV by 2035? Not everyone can afford EVs - so how would this work? Also, EV charging infrastructure is wa…

    The new law that is being passed will not solve your personal issues with socializing. The law is designed to protect you from unfair discrimination by your employer, i.e. being fi…

    This California law from 1959 already bans discrimination by ancestry: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unruh_Civil_Rights_Act From a legal perspective, is a new law even necessary? I…

    This is interesting. If PIE did not actually exist, what language would be the root instead? Because chronologically, there does need to be some root language that explains the pat…
