And are you telling me that even in Western Europe, things are even worse? Well, I can’t find a sort of database of racial inequality in places there, but there is the GINI coefficient, which calculates income disparity.  Note that the higher the coefficient (and the redder its place on the map), the worse it is. Let’s see how the US scores in comparison with other nations.

Wait, we've been talking about justice, which I took to refer to abstracts like freedom of speech and action. Are you defining it in economic terms? If so, given the context right now, you'd better show this chart next to racial diversity charts, or % of population that is newly immigrated.

The de jure sort you've been mentioning, we do have. However, there's a lot of things that are linked to de facto injustice that need fixing which you don't seem to acknowledge, and the fact remains that the issues of class, race, power, and privilege are inextricably bound (at least at this point.) I strongly suspect that new immigration doesn't matter as much as you think to the lobster heirarchies (or their real world equivalents). Case in point: many of my ancestors arrived in America before the civil war, but the vast majority of black people in America have ancestors who were taken there long before then (as well as enough Massa DNA to make up a white great-grandparent) and my family is better off than alarmingly high percent of black people. The appeals to a sort of natural aristocracy these lobster heirarchies you challenge seem to imply, that appear to coincide far more with race than they should, don't really apply to the real, human world.
