No. We are by our nature unequal. Some excel, some fail, and most putter around in the middle. Education, particularly in the early grades, has suffered ever since they started teaching to the lowest common denominator, rather than stratifying classes/groups and teaching each group to the highest level of their ability, and working to push past that.

I keep thinking of Vonnegut and the weights, the clunky shoes, and the noiseboxes.
