If you heard someone had illegally chopped down a tree, would you be extra upset if the tree were an endangered species?


Are women endangered of going extinct? I'm sorry, I hadn't realized that before.


Only 5% of American businesses are owned by women of color.


So you're suggesting amending the law that they get preferential treatment in liquidation cases, and their companies are always paid first regardless of company size, resources etc?

Because that's what I understand the article to complain about. It's not a "three women baking pies and trying to make ends meet"-company, it's a "we produce thousands of cakes a week"-company. They are not going to go out of business, but they will probably have learned to be more active about unpaid invoices.

Not everything is about suppressing women or minorities, and crying wolf all the time will lead to people ignoring the cases when it actually is.
