DIVERSITY, EQUITY AND INCLUSION
A NOTE BOMB
Why have the following countries been consistently rated the happiest and freest in the world?
Finland, Iceland, Sweden, Denmark, Switzerland, New Zealand, Norway,
Iceland, Australia, Israel, Ireland, Luxemburg and the Netherlands
Answer # 1. They are capitalist
Capitalism requires freedom and opportunity.
Answer #2. They have republican forms of government.
Answer # 3 - The absence of diversity
They have small populations, easily managed. They are culturally, religiously, and racially homogeneous. They lack tribal animosity. The absence of diversity is unifying
Answer # 4 - Equality not Equity
They practice equality of opportunity, not equality of outcome. (Equity)
Equity cannot be achieved without coercion
Answer # 5 - Inclusion, excludes
Requiring 50% of pilots in training to be women and people of color, as United Airlines is doing, excludes on the basis of race and gender.
Bottom line: DEI is not fair.
Meritocracy is fair.
Competition is fair.
Free Enterprise is fair.
Equality of opportunity is fair.
DEI – results in the opposite of its stated intentions.
Diversity is divisive
Equity is not equality
Inclusion, excludes
