Answer:

B.The best way to eliminate discrimination and competition is by treating everyone exactly the same.

Explanation:

The text sets the focus on hegemony; that is to say, to organise society without any differences. Human beings look alike: clones; education, and health care are provided by a global government to everyone. Houses also look alike. There are no differences in salaries. The families  have the same number of members. People who  react against this hegemonic organization -outliers- are expelled from society.
