[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]"Equity" is a goner. Get used to it. We're back to Equal Protection Under the Law. Good.[/quote] Sometimes inequity results in lack of equal protection. In 2020, my department was temporarily assigned to assist Oklahoma UI. I spoke to many UI applicants living in rural areas. It became apparent that internet access in some rural areas of OK is both expensive and terrible, so that they could not meet online application and reporting requirements reliably. Lack of accessible, reliable internet has a huge impact on access to government agencies. [/quote] Yes, this was the same story with electricity. The government often steps in when it is not economically advantageous for private industry to provide services. This is why I’m stunned that rural America co-signs the GOP/Heritage Foundation’s plan to minimize the federal government. They would be sitting in the f**ing dark had it not been for the federal government! Private industry is only about money and profit.[/quote] Biden insisted on equity at the TVA.[/quote] Equity = making sure poor (white) people have the same access as everyone else. Why do you assume the term has a racial component?[/quote]
