I'm not pursuing equality of outcome, I'm not a filthy commie. But in your race analogy, you need to realize that there are 50 people with a broken leg who simply cannot run.
Obviously this should not take away anything from the race winner. But as a society we need to find a way to take care of the 50 that couldn't run, and not dismiss them as "it's their fault so I don't care lol".
About 10-15% of the population have an IQ that prevents them from holding a job or and not being micromanaged on a daily basis.
To that end, I believe there should be a safety net/govt services that support those people. However, people in the 70-90 IQ range have much higher rates of violence and crime. Having a lenient criminal justice system causes more problems for the very stupid people who aren't violent.
