Because income disparity is not the problem. Racism is the problem. Income disparity is born of racism. Address the problem of racism and by default you are addressing the symptom of income disparity. Consider it a bonus, but the ultimate goal is to address racism.
In regards to 1 or 2 - the answer is 1.

Well (1) is almost exactly what I stated the first time, and you denied that it was true.
OK so now it's clear. Even if all the races had identical socioeconomic status, you believe that some races still:
(1) need preferential admission to college,
(2) need to be preferentially hired and promoted,
(3) etc.,
even though those being preferentially treated have the same socioeconomic status on average as those who are not being preferentially treated.
SO here's the next question: in this scenario where all the races have equal socioeconomic status yet AA is still necessary, how do you decide which race(s) deserve the preference?
Keep in mind that, as you pointed out earlier, every human being on the planet is racist.
