Word for the Day: Wednesday, August 26, 2015

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Equality. In my opinion, there's "Useful Equality", and "Scary Equality". The useful version is, simply "Equal Opportunity" and include details, that some oppose, such as "Affirmative Action", which attempts to "shake the pot", so as to see all of what's in it, not just the "most visible".

Now to "Scary Equality": Forced conformity? Say, in a Parochial School which, for example, makes people wear the same "school uniforms". But also, some countries. As another example, I followed the collapse of Czechoslovakia, in 1989. Before the communistic government (which DEFINITELY preaches equality) failed, there was only one party, the communistic one, "of course". In other words, forced conformity.

The issue here, is to have opportunities for people, who do NOT fit into the "popular cubby holes".
