I did exactly what I wanted..and have gotten the reaction that I expected.Nice story....too bad the Republican party no longer stands for what it used too, eh?A young woman was about to finish her first year of college. Like so many others her age she considered herself to be a very liberal Democrat and had grown to be in strong favor for the distribution of all wealth in America.
She felt deeply ashamed that her father was a rather staunch
conservative which he expressed openly.
One day she was challenging her father on his beliefs and his
opposition to higher taxes on the rich and more welfare programs. In the middle of her heart-felt diatribe based upon the lectures she had from her far left professors at her school, he stopped her and asked her point blank how she was doing in school.
She answered rather haughtily that she had a 4.0 GPA, and let him know that it was tough to maintain. That she had to study all the time, never had time to go out and party like other people she knew. She didn't even have time for a boyfriend and didn't really have many college friends because of spending all her time studying. That she was taking a more difficult curriculum.
Her father listened and then asked, "How is your friend Mary doing?"
Shereplied, "Mary is barely getting by", she continued, "all she has is barely a 2.0 GPA" adding, "and all she takes are easy classes and she never studies."
But to explain further she continued emotionally, "But Mary is so very popular on campus, college for her is a blast, she goes to all the parties all the time and very often doesn't even show up for classes because she is too hung over."
Her father then asked his daughter, "Why don't you go to the Dean's office and ask him to deduct a 1.0 off your 4.0 GPA and give it to your friend who only has a 2.0." He continued, "That way you will both have a 3.0 GPA and certainly that would be a fair equal distribution of GPA."
The daughter visibly shocked by the father's suggestion angrily fired back, "That wouldn't be fair! I worked really hard for mine, I did without and Mary has done little or nothing, she played while I worked real hard!"
The father slowly smiled and said, "Welcome to the Republican Party."
Too bad you don't get it. Thx for raising the zombie, though! If you were a smarter stooge, you would have left this alone. You're not, and you didn't.

Too bad YOU don't get it--but in your case..how could you, right?
The Republican Party fights to make sure that only certain students get access to that 4.0 average.
Other students are told they can’t afford that college, that colleges are only for the elite, that those with “connections” get preference
Democrats are about equal opportunity for all

You are confusing equal opportunity with equality of outcome.
