Abstract
This chapter explains the notion that an effective way to address social, cultural, or economic grievances is to divide us into identity groups and to show how these identities could intersect to make one’s grievances jointly and severally worthy of compensation. Absent in most such considerations is that group animus and divisions reduce the size of markets and their associated opportunities for entrepreneurs.
