From the perspective of college sports, Southall added, any scandal involving academic fraud, such as the years of paper classes disproportionally for athletes at the University of North Carolina, might be worse, striking as it does at the soul of college sports' stated mission, which is athletics as a part of education.

Instead, the strongest notes of concern have come from two unlikely sources: the ACLU, which worries the law will disproportionally affect minorities and the poor; and mental health advocates, who say they worry the law could be used to seize guns from people perceived as a danger only because of their mental conditions.

Tuesday's ruling will sting at Louisville, which must surrender its 2013 national title less than six months after a conference rival, North Carolina, was able to avoid sanctions when the N.C.A.A. ruled that it had broken no rules in a major academic scandal involving dubious classes disproportionally taken by major-sport athletes.

"A per-capita cap, even one that is based on different groups of beneficiaries, will disproportionally harm children's access to care, including services received at school," AASA's Sasha Pudelski, along with the National Alliance for Medicaid in Education's John Hill and the National Association of School Psychologists' Kelly Vaillancourt Strobach, said in a statement.

"A low-cost, highly accurate test has the most potential for helping blunt the current epidemic of preterm birth in the United States and around the world, an epidemic that disproportionally affects women of color, especially black women, who are as much as twice as likely to deliver preterm than their white peers," she said.

"The all-important automobile industry would be disproportionally hit by either of these scenarios, not only because German manufacturers would find it more difficult to sell their cars in the other regions, but also, because the whole production process relies so much on cross-border traffic of parts and components," Schon, from Axioma, told CNBC via email.

In May, for instance, Sessions issued a new directive to prosecutors to pursue the stiffest charge available in every criminal case that likely will result in more prosecutions of non-violent drug offenders and tougher sentences, rolling back measures introduced by the Obama administration designed to alleviate the societal costs of mass incarceration that fall disproportionally on minority communities.

"While the intent of rent control laws is to assist lower-income populations, history has shown that rent control exacerbates shortages, makes it harder for apartment owners to make upgrades and disproportionally benefits higher-income households," Doug Bibby, president of the National Multifamily Housing Council, which represents the apartment industry, said in a statement Tuesday about the Oregon bill.

Many more stem from drive-bys or other street or home shootings, frequently pegged as gang related but often just interpersonal conflicts carried out on an opportunistic basis (often on holidays and weekends when people are out and about—and perhaps angry and liquored up) and made disproportionally deadly by the spray-and-pray style and culture of much of our gun violence.

In the five years since Tressel stepped down as coach, college sports scandals have come to public light that make Ohio State's look quaint: the fake classes disproportionally for athletes at North Carolina; the failure to address sexual assault allegations against football players at Baylor; Joe Paterno's apparent decades-long sheltering of a serial child sexual abuser at Penn State.

Backed by more grim studies that report 21.4 percent of the half a million black men and women with HIV are undiagnosed, and the rate of transmission is three times higher for those unaware that they're infected, the US health agency invested $102.3 million in 25 states and large cities to conduct testing and increase awareness in the underserved and disproportionally affected population.

If the #MeToo movement has especially impacted "major progressive cultural institutions," as French claims, it's not because progressives are disproportionally inclined to mistreat women; it's because progressives, being more committed to gender equality than conservatives, hold themselves to a higher moral standard on the issue—and are more willing to expose members of their own tribe, like Weinstein and Schneiderman, who prove to be #MeToo hypocrites.

During Democratic presidencies, the division has moved to challenge intentional discrimination by individuals (like a landlord who turns away an African-American couple and then rents to a white one) and has sought to combat policies that disproportionally affect minorities, even if it's not easy to prove they're racially motivated (like a low-income housing program that funnels African-American recipients into mostly minority areas).

The thing that is different this time is that all that I've said about already less-educated, lower-skilled workers is beginning to apply more to middle-skill and even higher-skill professional and white-collar work, which may become more susceptible given the improvement of things like AI. Our recent research has shown that AI is disproportionally utilized in white collar, middle management, or upper management areas.

"So, what we have is a global increase in personal savings rate, which has caused excessive supply increases globally [disproportionally in China], and U.S. consumers wanting to save more [to be less insane than the last decade], which makes trade deficits less severe than they would be otherwise, growth to be slower than expected for both economies, and inflation to be lower than what it would be otherwise," McCourt explained.

The true tragedy of Charlottesville would be to lose the momentum for change at this level — to begin reforming the criminal justice system, which disproportionally impacts young, black men; to initiate welfare reform that breaks the cycle of poverty for so many families; to support local law enforcement with adequate resources; to enhance the educational opportunities for poor communities by giving families the resources — through vouchers and choice — to send their kids to the best neighborhood schools.
