22. I'm not disagreeing outright, but your sentence is scary and I think a lot of people would take
offense to the wording no matter how "true" it might be. Mainly because it implies that certain groups get more freedom than others based on some arbitrary "approval" scale. Who decides the scale and when does my group get kicked out of the circle of approval? It's hard to believe that that is your ultimate dream for America since it seems like it's the reality, substituting "they" for "I" depending on which groups you consider yourself a part of. Kind of a creepy answer all the way around.
