This discussion center around the reasons my the percentage of high school dropouts has increased by applying the theory of causation.
"We simply cannot, according to Spencer, imagine identical causes and conditions being followed by different effects, because this would require that we conceive of force as increasing or diminishing in quantity -something Spencer says is contrary to the laws of thought" (Smith, 1981, p. 12).
