"inequality" in the homepage
brendan:
"It should be clear by now that the VCE system, unfortunately, is troubled by the problem of inequality between students from differing socio-economic areas of society. The vast gap separating the top and bottom schools ensures that there are able, willing and motivated students who are being left behind, struggling at the bottom."
Why is inequality a problem?
enwiabe:
Inequality in opportunites, resources, etc. which translates into inequality in final marks. Btw, brendan, this is exactly what I mean - arguing for the sake of arguing.

Dude it was a question. Inequality isn't the problem its mediocre schools. You could very well increase equality by making everyone equally stupid. Yet who would say that is desireable? If there were some government policy that would reduce the resources of those at the top without affecting the resources of anyone else, would you want the government to flip this switch? If you were aiming at reducing inequality you would.

Yeah, a loaded question. Nice.
