Inequality cannot be "Fixed"

People believing that everybody has equality of opportunity is, of course, a big part of the problem.

Why is everything on that list government?

Based on what?

No the problem is not seizing what is offered and blaming others for their lack of action.

Look at your verb tense.

How do you know they don’t?

I don’t think any of it’s government as opposed to not-government.

Of course, that literally has to be your defense if you believe the fiction of equal opportunity.

Can you prove they don’t?

A five minute drive from a school in the poor part of town to a school in the rich part of town.

You think someone born in the projects in Chicago has the same opportunity as a kid growing up in kennebunkport? Come on man…

No your answer showcases that mindset.

My life experiences inform my answer, which showcases my mindset.

Circulus in demonstrando, I haven’t seen that one in a while.

All of these actions listed are due to amendments, laws passed in Congress or judicial oversight- the government.

It’s all government, every bit of it.

That is an outcome.

Can I prove the absence of something? Sometimes, but not in this case.

Thank God for government and the amendment process- otherwise slavery would still be legal.

Yes. I know they do.
