Is Equity Good For All?

Do we make more progress under equality or under equity?  Nothing to see here; just move along.

Normies and Equity

From The Anchoress, by Ms Elizabeth Scalia, 7 August 2024, 11:37 AM.

Here is the 𝕏 post:

The video of Kamala talking equitable outcomes wld play much better if the outcomes of the so-called “public servant” classes were included in all that equity.  Somehow living in middle class nabes w/reduced health insurances & police & speech protections is never their outcome.

In my mind equality means we all get a fair shot.  This is, I believe, the traditional American ethos, even if not achieved at 100% in practice.  Equity is more a "from each according to his ability; to each according to his need.  To me equity is helping everyone be as fast as Roger Bannister.

As Ms Scalia states, there is doubt as to if we ever see universal equity.  What are Candidates Harris and Walz selling us, and how will they achieve it, and at what cost?
