Education and the Fallacy of "Fairness"

Thomas Sowell gets it exactly right exposing an attempt in a Berkeley high school to trade off science education for social work - part of the "redistribution" mentality!

Key quote:

"Redistribution of material resources has a very poor track record when it comes to actually helping those who are lagging, whether in education, in the economy or elsewhere. What they need are the attitudes, priorities and behavior which produce the outcomes desired."
