[quote=Anonymous][quote]Psst we’re a capitalist society which explains why affluent families are over-represented in elite universities, why private schools get a lot of discretion wrt their admissions criteria, and why people with more $ get pissed off when they see others with less $ getting things they thought only they were entitled to. Meritocracy is a fairy tale that only affluent white males (and those who identify with them) can believe in in this society. And if we did want a truly meritocratic system, we’d start by radically restructuring pre-collegiate education.[/quote] Our US House of representatives and the Senate: what is the average wealth of each meritorious participant? I understand they are [b]all[/b] millionaires!!! No SES diversity in our leaders! Thank God for Harvard. [/quote]
