Inequality will always be inevitable. Striving to better yourself by learning new skills and improving your abilities is to produce inequality because you're rising above the mediocre masses anytime you make an effort at anything. People should focus on equity, not equality. Equality of outcome is more fair than equality of opportunity.
- aantix 7y ago>Equality of outcome is more fair How so? To equalize outcomes for all parties, you must take from those that performed better?
- miguelmota 7y agoI might have phrased it incorrectly but the message I was trying to convey is that those that perform better and produce more results should be rewarded more (as expected) because they put in the effort to achieved better outcomes, rather than giving someone a head start because of their race or economic status (ie affirmative action) which is inequality.
- chii 7y ago> rather than giving someone a head start so you're saying your children should not inherit any wealth, and must be taken away to a state institution to be raised like everybody else? I think inequality being inevitable isn't bad, as long as the floor is at an acceptable humane level. Why does it matter if 1 person owned 99% of all the world's wealth, if the remaining 1% is enough to give basic human needs?
- miguelmota 7y agoYou're pulling a strawman so not going to dignify your first statement. On the latter, you're right in that who cares how people spend their money but nobody should be obligated to give it away.
