No it isn't. Discrimination possibly, but definitely not the definition of racism.

Some of y'all need to learn how to read articles before posting.
Either way, it's a stupid arse idea.

It really is a pretty excellent experiment. Before I heard about this, the concept of people having different incomes was completely alien to me. It's crazy that I've never been able to comprehend this until now.

I'm mixed about what I should pay....?

Then some "lower paying customer" steals that nerd's bike while they're enjoying their 150% markup dogshit food.

Unless you're arguing he is saying blacks are worse than whites or vis versa, it's not racism.

Better response is to just pay the $30 and mention that you are used to shouldering the burden.
No need to start a conversation about a social situation that no one wants to fix.

If you are white, you will be asked to pay $30. If you are black, Latino or Asian, the bill will be $12. Any diner can elect to pay $12 and be served
My question would be when do they identify that you can elect to pay the $12? Is it after you get pissed and are about to leave? Or if you pay $30, will they end up saying you are part of some experiment, here is your $18 back?

I pay 30, Mrs Pimp pays 12, and my kids pay 21.
Makes sense if your religion is Progressivism and your entire world is Race Grievance and personal resentment.

Or pay $40 and tell them they forgot to factor in the extra welfare programs you pay for

He did state when the customer inquired about the price they were charged the same as any other customer. Also it was/is an experiment.
Bottom line don't eat there if you feel discriminated.

For those that didn’t read the article; IT WAS AN EXPERIMENT BY TULANE AND LOYOLA!!!!
This business nor the other businesses that participated operates like this in normal conditions.

you clearly cant say it is to off set economic inequality if asians get a benefit..so what is the motivation
Posted on 2/28/18 at 11:10 am to L S Usetheforce
I'm fine with it. Just take your business elsewhere
Posted on 2/28/18 at 11:10 am to L S Usetheforce
I can say with 100% certainty that that is a violation of the Civil Rights act
Posted on 2/28/18 at 11:10 am to L S Usetheforce
imagine if they reversed that... via including tip charges.
