Both sometimes. Everyone should have the right to equal access, but not necessarily equal outcome. A person that doesn't finish high school certainly doesn't have the right to a multi million dollar waterfront estate. Or to the same pay as the person that put in the time in school or apprenticeship to better themselves.

There's no arguing that at all; people who do are idiots.

When no amount of work you put in for school or apprenticeship or world experience still proves you're the better candidate to be picked for a position, over someone with the right money or religion or skin color, what, exactly, is the recourse?
