I bet if I sketched out a "social justice resolution" along the lines of what AOC did I could get a LOT of folks saying it sounded great.

It basically would be Robin Hood where the robbin' was being done by government of course.

Where is "equal outcome" an acceptable goal or objective?
Medical care?
Sports?
Business?
Entertainment?
Politics?

Everywhere in life, in every possible venue.

Every game would end as a tie.

Let's imagine my SJ resolution started with something like this:

"No one needs more than $50 million in assets. So, government will confiscate any amount above that and redistribute the wealth to everyone else. We'd still have multimillionaires, but the wealthy gap would be far lower."

How many in the US would find that sensible and right? 30%?

You misunderstood the question... it is unacceptable in every industry to have "equal outcome" as the stated objective.

In your Robin Hood example, you would be beaten, killed, and your burned body hung from the nearest landmark because some SJW group felt slighted by how you allocated the assets among the masses.

In my perfect world, equal would not only be acceptable, but mandatory.

I read a book about this once. Folks who ran too fast had to wear chains to slow them down so everyone tied.

I read a book about this too......pigs started inhabiting the farmers house and said that all were equal, but some were more equal than others.

It was a different, but similar book, I think, been a while since I read it.

Maybe it was the same.

As you treat the least among us ....
