Jordan Peterson has a good video about this. I think he says the required IQ for a janitor is like 89?
We've got entire populations with averages of 85 and lower, meaning the majority aren't mentally suitable to be a janitor, but we pretend that everyone is equal and try to make an equal number of them become engineers and doctors....
That's their AVERAGE though, so it's not like none of them can be engineers, but if we look at the situation realistically we should really be treating people according to their ability and finding suitable things for them go do rather than expecting greatness from everyone.
Equal OPPORTUNITY. You've got the skills, you're in.
100 is the average for white people.
When broken down by race, it gets a little scary.

Equal outcome? Yeah, no.
