I don’t understand. So, if Mott works harder than I do, qualifying for more money, would these authorities hold back some of his salary?
Please apply logic

Private school, very expensive, and the principal kept Awards/GPA's secret so everyone would be the same and no one would get preference of college, smooth move.

But everyone is not the same. When will libs get that through their heads.

Never.
These are the same people that insist there's no difference between Australian Aboriginals and Norwegians.

The liberal crap, the liberal dogma, is very much exhibited by this Virginia action. Note that no liberal will touch this thread, because we have them dead to rights. I wish so much that one of the more strong-hearted liberals would stand up and comment on the good or the bad of this action.

No such thing as a strong hearted liberal, just misguided creeps who think they know better than everyone else.

Maybe they missed this most simple question ever posted in the forum, so I post once again.

This is a great example of putting a crystal-clear question out there which libs simply cannot answer. Pitiful. No wonder y’all don’t like me. I guess I win another one.
Pitiful.

I cannot answer for what “these authorities” might or might not do. Need more data to be able to apply any logic.

You most certainly do not. We can stipulate that any teacher who holds back awards for success, to avoid hurt feelings or whatever, is wrong. Plain wrong. If you disagree, please say why, all ears. This is what good debate is about. Not the stuff Shav just wrote, nasty, I saw it before it was erased.

So, given that, authorities are groups (teachers) who hold sway over subjects. (Students). To my analogy, if Mott and I work for for a bricklayer, paid based on production, and Mott turns in more production than I do, is it equitable or fair or right or wrong if the boss restricts Mott’s pay? He just restricts it for his own subjective reason?
I could not make this more simple. I can’t WAIT to see Marauder tear into it.

A link, so we know WTF you are talking about, would help.

In capitalism, workers get paid what they can negotiate from their bosses. If you negotiated better than Mott even if he was a better worker, you'd get paid more. Conversely , if your boss felt like paying Mott more because, for example, Mott was his brother in law, that would be your tough luck even if you "worked harder" than Mott.

Rewards in capitalism have little to do with who "works harder" as you have been shown many times.
