I can't, that's my point we need to provide good opportunities for people of all abilities, not just for the smartest, we're failing at this goal.
I want a more just and equitable society not necessarily just an equal one.

You can be super smart, but if you're 2/3 as smart and also rich, you're still likely to do better in life than the smart, poor kid would.
- Aloha 8y agoI'd agree, I believe poverty is at the root of most of our social ills, and we need to make a serious effort to solve it. We can do it while trying to solve the other social ills, but without solving poverty, we won't fix the other issues.
