Constitution of the Italian Republic

[MagicManICT]

It is not the job of any government to enforce equality.

Then who is responsible if one group is repressing another based on any number of (effectively random) factors? What recourse does the repressed have? Without government intervention, the only recourse I know of is violence, which as necessary as it may be at times, is not really a solution in civilized society.

Well, It kind of is...
Job of government is partially to enforce the constitution, and if constitution says that there must be equality, then it's governments job to enforce it.
