1. Yes. Unfortunately, the role that this privilege plays in society is often to encourage inequality among citizens and not to allow meritocracy to be exercised efficiently.

2. No. The USA promotes and foresees an unequal treatment among citizens, mainly regarding race, origin, social position and heredity of people, which ends up generating a strong social inequality.

3. The US government protects citizens' rights through laws and guidelines that must be followed across the country. However, often these laws only work in theory and people continue to have their rights unprotected, especially citizens who are members of a social minority.

4. No. When our government was created, there was a strong slave culture in the country, which affirmed that whites and blacks were different and should be treated in different ways, where whites were placed as superiors and deserving of all possible social privilege. Furthermore, at the beginning of our government, women were also considered inferior and lived under a system of domination to which men were not subjected.

5. This did not impact the decision of the creators of our government, since they were all white men and did not suffer from the lack of rights and privileges that women and blacks suffered.
