~ Discrimination~

As a neutral nation murjanica will not allow discrimination of any type. We are not only neutral when it comes to war but also when it comes to discrimination. There will be no tolerance for racism, sexism, or distinguishing by ethnicity. We citizens of murjanica are a peaceful people and discrimination will disrupt the peace, which we intend to keep.

Job discrimination is a major issue in the world today. http://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/index.php/Employment_discrimination Many people cannot get a job because of their race or religion. How many people will think twice before hiring an employee because they happen to be from the Middle East. How many people will think twice before hiring someone because they just happen to be Muslim. http://www.adc.org/

Age discrimination is another topic of interest to many. Plenty employers do not want to hire someone of an older age. The reason is obvious of course. They are not nearly as efficient as someone who is maybe of the age of twenty. The older person has worked many more years and is usually burnt out or the fact that they are older remains. Sometime they may not be burnt out from working many years, but their body just functions slower than people of a younger age. http://www.eeoc.gov/facts/age.html

Sexual discrimination is a major issue especially today. http://www.now.org/issues/wfw/wal-mart.html But today sexual discrimination is not nearly as big of an issue as it was even twenty to thirty years ago. Just look back on colonial America. Women were not allowed to work because they were thought of to be incapable. But back in those days most of the work was physical labor which as we all know men were expected to do while their wives took care of the family and the house. http://www.wic.org/misc/history.htm

Caste discrimination may not be a major issue in America but that is not to say it does not exist, it does but not in the same form or term of caste. A better example of this would occur in many asian countries. Caste discrimination was more of a major issue back in older times but it does prevail today, just not to the same extent. Peoples in a higher caste were treated like royalty whether they really were or not by peoples in a lower caste. People in lower castes were looked down upon by anyone in a higher caste. People normally did not associate with anyone outside of their own caste. If someone in a lower caste associated with any member of a higher caste they would be severely punished. Any member of a higher caste that would socialize with a member of a caste that was lower than their own was looked down upon by the member of their own caste until they did something to redeem themselves. http://www.hrw.org/reports/2001/globalcaste/

Luckily for those of you who are citizens of the country of murjanica, there will be no need to worry about things like discrimination. We are all human beings with differences but those are the things that make each and every one of us special. We are all born into different races and religions. Some of us are male and some female. Some are blessed with a greater gift of wealth and some of us are not. But in murjanica these things will not determine the good or bad of a person. Discrimination as once mentioned previously will not be tolerated.
