Does anybody really believe that employers hire people because they went to private school?
If companies were forced to hire people from state schools simply because they come from state schools would that not be just as bad (if not worse)? Although that seems to be the way people want things to go. The hypocrisy is unbelievable, as Maggie said: "the poor don't care about becoming less poor, so long as the rich are less rich." Society will not and can not progress if people are set on stopping people becoming better, rather than bettering themselves.
You cannot punish people for being rich, or intelligent, or well educated. You have to encourage the best people to go for the best jobs. If the best people are from private schools, then so be it.
