| Equity? You mean equality (and that's still about rights, not pay.) Equity is just a stake in the outcome at all. |

| I think we're talking about different things then. Nobody is asking for equal result. Equity means sharing the rewards of productivity, instead of allowing a group of people who do nothing get rich off of other people's hard work. That's fair. Doing good work should be rewarded! |
