Your post is intriguing. Just finished watching Levin with the President of Hillsdale College. He was telling us that the modern progressive type of education is attempting to turn all of our laws into this kind of social science reasoning. Instead of our ideas coming from “the laws of Nature and Nature’s god” they come from our own form of social science and whatever modern ideology is currently popular.

I has a violin instructor years ago who charged a lawyer more per hour than I was paying. He did not mind this because he did not like lawyers, ( I was a high school teacher at the time) and he could use this way to get even. Then a plumber told me he asked for and received a much higher hourly fee when working for a wealthy family than for a poor family. This has been going on for a long time. Only now the movement believes they have the power to make it the new law of the land.

I think it's different when it is a barter between two private individuals. Companies also offer reduced fees for "frequent" return customers, there are "employee discounts," senior citizen discounts, and other tiered cost structures (e.g. volume discounts, 2/10 net 30, etc.).

It's when the government codifies discrimination into the law that there is a problem.
