The criticism that the categorical imperative discriminates against people of no or low income is not a major criticism raised against Kant's moral theory. Kant's ethics, centered on the categorical imperative, is criticized for potential loopholes, its rigidity in not allowing exceptions, and the subjective nature of rationality, but not for economic discrimination.
