(My comment over on NRO)
Obviously, this is a grave problem of basic fairness that strikes at the heart of what it means to be a New American.
But there is hope! We can support laws to induce the unfairly tall to walk around in public stooped over to the average height, perhaps about 5’5’.
“Nobody alive over 5 feet 5!” can be the rallying chant of the movement!
And the government should provide booster heels to anybody under 5’5” to bring them up to parity.
At last, we shall all see exactly eye to eye! Then, we can begin to study pigmentation, and how to make everybody the same shade of tan.
In Greek mythology, Procrustes attacked people by stretching them or cutting off their legs, so as to force them to fit the size of an iron bed. That was supposed to be a metaphor and an entertaining myth, not a blueprint.
Today’s liberals need to understand that Greek myths, Atlas Shrugged, and 1984 were not meant to be instruction manuals.
