You have to revamp it because its not directly analagous. Let's say everyone in the school has to distribute their GPA amongst the rest of the school. Would it then be fair for the person with the GPA of 2.0 to give up 1.0 and the person with the 4.0 also only having to give up 1.0 ?
In terms of "fairness" ... the person with the GPA of 2.0 will be left with half of what they had, 1.0.. and the person with the 4.0 will be left with 3/4ths or 3.0 ... one will fail the other will still pass easily.
Who should have to lift the heavier rocks... the strongest person in the bunch or the weakest?

i dont think you got the point of the story in this post, the point is more towards that people who earn their money should not have to compensate for the people who slack off, or are just lazy (or in the story people who dont go to class and who just party the whole time) its not about fairness, we all no its not fair, the point of the story is to show how there is no excuse for people who dont try, they shouldnt get rewarded for their lack of effort, and we shouldnt harm the people who had the incentive and worked towards a goal
