Why YSK: because what seems like equal situation from surface isn’t always equal opportunity for all. And even when equal measure of help is provided, it might not be equally useful.

    Doing what’s good for you and others is often very different from doing what’s good monetarily.

      The monetary side helps match people where they’re most needed. (Not exactly because capitalism is broken in some ways, but approximately) If education and money were entirely decoupled, there would be less of a way to get people where they’re needed. Raising income wouldn’t help much since you wouldn’t need to think about that when choosing a major.

      Distributing skilled labor to where it’s needed is still good for others too. I agree money and morality aren’t correlated, but it can help guide in the useful direction. I think there needs to be a balance between allowing people to do whatever they want and encouraging them to do what’s needed.
