Access to resources & social attention are key concerns.
Some harmful effects of inequality when people do not have access to:
* needs (i.e. Maslow Hierarchy); particularly autonomy
* ability to express perspective
* ability to have perspective considered, paid heed to, & respected
* ability to influence local systems
* protection from those who are abstracted away from local systems; those who will not feel immediate consequences of their actions
If we can create systems where these concerns are prioritized, then inequality of wealth may not matter.
Some people are good at playing the game of gaining wealth. Some are good at other games. In the end, we all benefit from respecting and having compassing & empathy for all life & natural systems.
