How can inequality or discrimination hurt an economy's ability to maximize its human capital?

Well, if people are discriminated against and feel they are not equal to some other classes in their own society, they obviously will not be happy which will have an impact on their jobs and careers. If they are not happy, they will not give their full potential at their jobs, which will ultimately lead to less and less income for the company.
That's what I think, at least. :)

Answer

Discrimination or inequality is no justice against different categories of people.This normally occurs based on the grounds of age, sex or gender and the age or even based on the religious beliefs.

Explanation

When there is discrimination based on the above mentioned grounds that is racial among others which is treating people differently and some are treated well and others worse can easily weaken the economy. This will happen because some groups will feel that they dont fit in the community and due to unfair treatment they will not be in a position to interact with others. This will ruin the trade between different groups. They will also not be able to work with full potential in their working areas which will make their company s to less income.
