Discrimination exists, no matter what. Let’s face it, a “merit-based” system is really discriminating on the basis of I.Q. Some kids can get a 4.0 GPA without even trying, while others will work their asses off just to get a 2.8 GPA. Which one will be the better worker? Which one “deserves” a college education? Which one would benefit most from a college experience?
Nobody “earns” a high I.Q. It is a gift, totally undeserved. Too many people with well above-average intelligence like to pat themselves on the back as if they’ve earned whatever comes to them.
