I agree with you.
Inequality is only a problem today, because the poor are suffering. If everyone has basic level of living standard (which probably increases as we approach post-scarcity), inequality would seem much less of a problem.
- greedo 11y agoYou seriously think that it's because the "poor" are "suffering?" If all you do is elevate the base income level, the inequality will still exist, you've just moved the slider on the scale. People will still want/expect/demand more. Witness the demonization of the 1%, listen to the inane demands of the Million Student March, and tell me that there's even a token understanding of inequality in most people's minds. Especially in the US so much "inequality" is a First World problem.
