Power and prejudice II redux

Okay, i am back...i couldn't help but turn the ac on, even though i know mr jones the environmentalist will be on my case for the said exploit, but seriously, it was either that or a really long shower or a drive to school to hide in the cool library, any one of which could portray me as a usurper. So yeah.

Back to my sets of the oppressed, W, B, C, oppressed women, oppressed black men and unborn children, aka lives aborted. The question is who are the real victims here. I will base my decision on three indicators, The Power (such as black mens' ability to vote etc.) held by the set (variable P), um... not to confuse with the mathematical term power of a set, The Prejudice (such as women getting paid less for doing the same amount of job for the prejudice that they are not the providers etc.) against the set (variable p) and lastly The Cardinality of the set (variable n). All as derivatives with respect to the time (variable t).

LOL. Please note that positive derivatives are good signs for variables P and negative is a good sign for p as well as n. It's a simple goal to see which set has the least increasing power, are the most prejudiced against as time goes by and sports the fastest growing population. The real victims. Seriously dude, this way my decision is a fast one, i tell you!

C is the obvious winner.

(The derivatives were deleted for two reasons. 1) Blogger is messing up the derivatives as typed and i have no idea why. 2) I ran this by a literature major who strongly suggested a redux en anglais including certain clarifications)

As for further explanation, you have to wait. Cause i gotta get ready for a soiree in a town 40 miles south. Darn! Sun goes down at 8pm, can we still call it a soiree?

Ciao, à ce soir, mon ami!
