It is new to you because you haven't read the abundance of literature on class, gender, and racial inequality.
You stand against opportunity redistribution because you fall under the Functionalist paradigm of inequality (the status quo exists simply because it creates balance--similar to the biological/inherent inferiority models posited by Herrnstein and Murray's The Bell Curve and human capital arguments that argue that inequality exists simply because some people have better skills and try harder than others) and you don't understand that discrimination is based on outcome regardless of intent.
Sorry, T La Rock, LL killed it.
