Why aren't all forms of discrimination unconstitutional In what cases might it make sense for the government to discriminate between types of people?
The constitutional amendment that protected against discrimination specifically prohibited discrimination based on certain classes, such as race and ethnicity. It would be impossible to prevent all discrimination, as not all is bad.
For example, the state discriminates against the rich when offering Section 8 benefits. Only people who make below a certain income are eligible for reduced rate housing. It would be impossible and undesirable to offer reduced rate housing to everyone, so it is limited only to those that need it. However, if the state attempted to offer housing benefits only to people of a certain religion, it would be unconstitutional.

People can only function by noticing differences between things and making decisions accordingly. However, sometimes superficial differences are unimportant.

What words mean the same as discriminate?
"Discrimination" is sometimes used to describe the unfair treatment of someone based on their race, or colour, or sex, or social standing. In this sense, words like "prejudice" and "bigotry" convey a similar meaning. But "discrimination" also means "good judgement"; in this sense "astuteness" might be a good synonym. You may wonder how the word came to have such different meanings. Its original meaning was the ability to discriminate or tell the difference between things. Thus on the one hand it means being able to notice important differences (the difference between well-made and shoddily made goods, for example) and also unimportant ones (superficial differences in appearance between people).
