>>>And I think that food, fuel, clothing and medicine should be treated similarly -- that is, provided equally regardless of wealth. Food and fuel in particular do not have infinite sources of supply. Have you REALLY thought through all the edge cases and complexities of equal provision of supply-constrained resources and in the face of practically-unconstrained demand? Are physically larger people or people with high metabolisms allocated the same caloric value of nutrients as the diminutive? How is that equal, if their bodies have higher demands to maintain their muscle mass? Are natural body builders not allowed to pursue their fitness objectives because it would require an "excessive" allocation of healthy food products? What is the organizational process by which those who have grievances with their allocation are able to implement adjustments? These are largely rhetorical questions, I probably shouldn't further derail the thread, but I wanted to highlight how I consider this position not particularly well thought-out, and I would encourage you to dig into a WHOLE lot of specifics of real-world implementation to better understand why.
