Alex K Wrote:[...]equal treatment does not necessarily mean fair.
Quoted for truth!
Steven Pinker Wrote:[...]first of all, the concept of fairness is not the same as the concept of sameness. And so when Thomas Jefferson wrote in the Declaration of Independence, "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal," he did not mean "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are clones."
