These two visions of equality are about as comparable as dry and wet. Think of it in terms of ten teenage boys trying to dunk a basketball: equity means that they all face the same ten-foot standard, and only two them them can do it — equity thus usually means differences in outcome. Egalitarianism wants equality of outcome, and there is only one way to get that — lower the net. Sameness of outcome requires differences in the standards. ↗

His eyes widened at the unexpected reply, and he sat down roughly. Now it has a sense of humor. What next? ↗


— Christopher Paolini
