But in our current society, this is being challenged. A growing number of people want to replace the idea of equality of opportunity with equality of outcomes or “equity.” And new economic and social policy proposals are starting to reflect this shift. If this trend continues, America could move down a path our founders would not recognize. That’s why I’m emailing you today. The Hoover Institution recently published an eBook titled “Whatever Happened To Equality Of Opportunity?” to examine how we got here—and what the future may hold. And I want to make sure you get your free copy at this link. When you read this important piece, you’ll learn more about the difference between equality of opportunity and equality of outcomes, the role of government in this debate, and why there are reasons to be optimistic about the future. I think you’ll also be interested in the discussion of ideas circulating among progressive economists, along with the role immigrants play in the “land of opportunity.” You can get your free copy of this eBook right here: [( I think you’ll find it very informative, especially given the current tensions between the ideas of equality and equity.
