economic discrimination

Read a random definition: Securities dispute resolution: Selecting arbitrators

A quick definition of economic discrimination:

Economic discrimination refers to any unfair treatment or prejudice in the world of business. This can include things like refusing to buy or sell a certain product, or setting prices unfairly. It's like when someone is mean to you because of who you are, but instead of being at school or on the playground, it's happening in the marketplace.

A more thorough explanation:

Economic discrimination refers to any type of discrimination that occurs within the realm of commerce. This can include actions such as boycotting a particular product or service, or engaging in price-fixing.

  • A group of consumers boycott a certain brand of clothing because they disagree with the company's labor practices.
  • A group of businesses collude to set prices for a particular product, effectively eliminating competition and driving up prices for consumers.

These examples illustrate how economic discrimination can take many forms, and can have negative impacts on both consumers and businesses. In the first example, the boycott is a form of economic protest that can put pressure on companies to change their practices. However, it can also harm the company's bottom line and potentially lead to job losses. In the second example, price-fixing is illegal and can lead to higher prices for consumers, as well as reduced competition and innovation in the marketplace.

I have no idea why people have so much beef w berkeley's app
I've been reading a bit about "herding," which is this idea that pollsters are making the race look tied so they look right no matter who wins.

Like... it's a more involved app but you don't have to do it? They're clearly trying to have some self-selection go on
I 100% agree with the self selection, I also am not even close to touching the medians there. However I think the huge PS plus the video and especially the very specific criteria for the why Berkeley essay is pretty crazy
I'm curious, how bold can one be in those videos? Is it worth making a satirical Jason Statham-action short if the adcoms have no sense of humor?
the more risk you take the higher chance of it backfiring
my instinct would be low humor bc if they have such a complex application I would feel hesitant to use a major part of it as a joke. They clearly take their admissions seriously and a joke video might convey the wrong thing at the wrong time. I think that humor is best put into a PS anecdote where it adds some shine to your personality
