<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1f497d">I considered it a most insightful work. There was something I saw in there I consider a major flaw: Professor Haidt used the term fairness without fully explaining that the right and the left each have their own definition of the term. Each considers the other’s definition of fairness as unfairness. The right considers it fair if everyone has equal opportunity. The left considers it fair if everyone has equal outcomes.

Maybe it characterizes the extreme left, but certainly not us moderate ones. In fact, I never heard of anyone who thinks everyone should make the same money, or get the same outcome in any way. We are most definitely not against competition and winning.</div>
