EQUITY VS EQUALITY
EQUITY – everybody gets what they need based on their own situation
because we are all not the same (fairness in every situation)
EQUALITY – everybody gets treated the same way.
**The problem is everyone did not start in the same place and is not
exposed to the same opportunities as others.
E.g. Everyone did not begin with the same education etc
**Equity is giving someone who is short, more boxes so he can see over
the fence and succeed in watching the game.
