"inequality" in the homepage

<< < (3/22) > >>

Collin Li:
How can you be against "libertarian, free market spiel" as you call it when the introduction message mentions VCE Notes as the "free market solution"?

I don't understand why you are so quick to defend yourself when the question is so tame.

enwiabe:
It's not being 'against' it at all. I'm just saying that that would have been the spiel into which he'd have launched as soon as I'd answered the question in a manner that went against the ideal. As I said, it was a LOADED question indicative of his wanting to start that argument.

costargh:
There's nothing wrong with saying that their is inequality in education and I know what Dan is saying. He's just saying that this site should be free to everyone to access regardless of socio-economic background and I applaud him for the idea.

Collin Li:
I applaud the idea but the goal is not to reduce inequality - the goal is to have resources available for as many people as possible. That is what brendan was getting at, and that is all there is. He was not trying to start an argument. You shouldn't jump to conclusions. It's hardly "libertarian." It's just rational to point out that our goal is to improve everybody, rather than say we are trying to squish the top and bottom tiers together.

enwiabe:
Actually the primary goal *is* to reduce inequality. The inequality is between resources and opportunities. This site gives EVERYBODY A+ resources as opposed to just private schools in the past. That, sir, is bridging the inequality gap. This site would not help very many private schoolers, I've gotta say. I hardly needed any help on BoS or any extra notes outside of school simply because my own school provided them bountifully. Unfortunately, Joe Bloggs from Wangaratta didn't get what I had, and this site rectifies that.
