Re: Hmmm
Of course, in order to do that, we'd have to have someone in office interested in something other than short-sighted, narrow-minded, personal self-interest. While the Republicans carry that as a banner, the Democratic party has not traditionally strayed far from the Me Generation hit parade.
Re: Hmmm
Balancing the tables the other way has never worked. Marx tried it and it was a disaster.
At this point I would be happy seeing some of the affirmative action programs for the Universities restored.

Re: Hmmm
I never thought of Affirmative Action as rebalancing. I have have always thought of it as promoting opportunity to succeed. Rather than claiming the universities "for the people" it allowed different types of people into the universities, what they did after that was up to them.
Re: Hmmm
I always wonder what Marx would have done if a committee had taken away his favorite pen, intending to give it to someone who was a better writer (to each according to his needs).
