  • I absolutely agree with this comic, and in a lot of ways I was the kid on the left.

    I struggle with the solution though. Isn’t it the purpose of all life about giving your offspring a better chance?

    When we give the kid on the right more opportunity, the left side will keep increasing their investment until it’s lopsided in their favor again.

    Maybe it’s not about trying to reach some theoretical absolute equity, but keeping the distribution at a healthy balance so that one side is not completely locked out of the game. That’s healthier for the whole community too since healthy competition ensures there’s progress.
