equal opportunity focuses on ensuring that everyone has the same chances to succeed. It is based on the idea that people should be judged on their individual merit and effort, not on factors beyond their control.

Equal equity, on the other hand, means that everyone has the same level of access to resources and opportunities, and that society should strive to reduce or eliminate disparities in outcomes and outcomes-based access. equal equity seeks to address systemic or historical inequalities that have created unfair advantages or disadvantages for certain groups.

While both concepts aim to promote fairness and justice, they have different approaches and emphasize different goals.

My question is which do you believe would solve more of the issues in the world today?

I think for a long time prejudism made access to to jobs and liberties unfairly unequal and to correct this we need equal equity rules. but I think equal equity rules are like training weels for society, once we've given up our old prejudism they will become obsolete and childish and equal oportunity will be the rule. of course equal equity is stupid, but its a necessary stupid until we drop the prejudism and without these temporary training weels society would drift back to oportunities limited by racism and sexism .
