One idea gaining some traction is a “handicapping” system along the lines used in golf, bowling and horse racing. “If we can figure out how much of an extra burden to put on those with more ability it would give everyone a fair chance of winning a college degree,” Perez said. “It would be a way of equalizing the pursuit of happiness promised in the Declaration of Independence.”

WHAT!!!!!???

I am seriously speechless.

I read in a recent post that the Saudi courts had asked a hospital about severing the spinal cord of someone accused of causing paralysis in another man. It’s an attempt to create a just eye-for-an-eye system. I’d say that if there is one person on campus in a wheelchair that all students need to undergo an operation to sever their spinal cords so that equality can be achieved. This is certainly a way of “equalizing the pursuit of happiness promised in the Declaration of Independence.”

Uhm....uh...do I need to add the sarcasm tag or not?
