    Maybe it works in theory, but it clearly doesn't work in practice. It has been tried and is being tried all over the world with repeatable results.
    The strengh of a hero is defined by the weakness of his villains.

    Nobody has the remotest clue how to design a study that can scratch the surface of examining the issue.

    You don't need to design a study. There are innumerable examples from history and other places in the world where employers are not held accountable for discrimination. You just have to look at what happens. That's why Harvest of Shame is a great example. It's in very recent history of the US and it's very well documented. If workers have no rights, they get exploited. As simple as that.

    Or not even history. The very example I linked works. She's not allowed to work because the fact that she has a wife means she's promoting a "homosexual agenda." Of course there are probably other places she could find work, but possibly not without moving to a different state. This case is a prime example why you need anti-discrimination laws, because if you don't, then minorities get fucked.

    The purpose of a study would be to find if this sample represents the population. Nobody knows how to design that sort of study on this topic.

    Always keep in mind that data tells us next to nothing about theories in social "sciences".

    That's tantamount to disregarding any and all data which doesn't fit your expectations.

    You can't really call it science, even in quotes, when that's your view.
