<p>Whether you think it should be in rights, wealth, home, number of shoes, height...anything.</p>
<p>I think people should be equal in a Harrison Bergeron sort of way.</p>
<p>Education and Rights.</p>
<p>We should all be equal in rights, and that’s about it. But wanting everyone to be equal in everything is communism. And for humans it isn’t possible. But equality can happen, just maybe not in my life time.</p>
<p>^and what above said to, we should be equal in education.</p>
<p>Education. From kindergarten all the way up through graduate school. </p>
<p>Also, I think we should all be given equal access to good food (as in good for you). Obesity is so high among the poor because it is cheaper to go to McDonald’s than to buy actual groceries, unfortunately.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>That may sound good, but society depends on the fact that people do not have equal opportunities to education; we need some people to do menial work. Additionally, if everyone can go to graduate school, what will a degree from one mean? Most likely nothing special.</p>
<p>I didn’t say that EVERYONE had to go through grad school. I think it should be there if people have the intelligence and drive to go there.</p>
<p>But it’s not equality if you need an innate, unteachable characteristic to go to graduate school, is it?</p>
<p>You can’t have absolute equality (same innate characteristics, etc). That’s an absurd thought.</p>
<p>I think what romani meant was that everyone should have equal opportunities.</p>
<p>Yay.</p>
<p>Yes, I am for equal opportunity–and for me, the biggest thing is education. Happy to see people write that!</p>
<p>And Harrison Bergeron…just no. But I love that short story.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Exactly. Thank you :).</p>
<p>Education, definitely. Otherwise the rich get even more advantages than they already have.</p>
<p>Rights, definitely. Opportunities being equal the world round sounds, frankly, unnecessary, unless we’re talking about a very low-level of opportunity, which I would support wholeheartedly.</p>
<p>Rights and opportunity. Wealth is earned.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I agree 100%. Everyone should have a chance, and he/she can choose what to make of it</p>
<p>Education.</p>
<p>Equal individual rights and equality in the eyes of the law.</p>
<p>I think everyone deserves a certain level of education (high school), which in turn provides the opportunity to seek further education.</p>
<p>Okay…now let’s make education equal. Easier said than done, I’m sure.</p>
<p>I don’t think it’s really possible to ever make education truly equal in a capitalist society. The wealthy know that education is the key to maintaining one’s advantage, and they’re willing to pay through the nose to maintain that advantage. For any improvements that are made to general levels of education, the wealthy can pay to stay that extra step ahead. The only effective way to keep things equal would be to mandate public education for all - but I don’t think that’s fair either.</p>
<p>Note that I did not list education as something that should be equal, but rather as something that should be available to a certain degree to everyone.</p>
