Old balance issues

What Blunt said isn't elitism.

You seem to be using the term "elitism" to justify your point against his, which doesn't do it for me at all.

Maybe you think i'm elite too, I dunno, but it isn't elitism to suggest that people who put more effort into what they do get further in life.

For example, a school dropout usually drops out because he can't be bothered when asked to study. He could easily pass with top grades if he really wanted to and put in the effort, but he doesn't want to.

Should we make the test easier for these pupils so they dont drop out? Yes or No?

My answer to that is No. If they want to pass, they will try hard. The onus is on the pupil and not the commanding authority for the pupil to pass the test. Or in this case, become a better pilot.
