Be Fair? I Like To Be Fair

So some bumiputeras demand their lot be given 67% of the nation's wealth, as reported by www.malaysiakini.com today. It seems their only justification for the demand is that they make up 67% of the nation's population. And, in case you feel like passing judgment already, just bear in mind these bumiputeras are being very fair. The 33% minority races still get to keep their 33% of wealth.

Why stop at demanding wealth for the race? I say it is even better to demand that wealth be distributed equally with each citizen of the country. In that way, the bumiputeras would definitely get their 67%, the minority races their 33%. On top of that, there won't be any intra or inter race wealth gap. Fair to all the bumiputeras, fair to everyone. So, let's go all the way, for fairness sake. Let Malaysia be the first nation on Earth to achieve that absolute equality. Who can argue with that?

Be fair? Come on, I like to be fair too.
