Should you think about your duty, or about the consequences of your actions? Or should you concentrate on becoming a good person?

the inequality of basic society

Post by Advocate »

People who have family support through childhood and those who get an inheritance seem largely oblivious to the leg up they have on people who don't. That government does not account for this difference proves indelibly that it is not "for the good of the people", but only special interests.

Agreed, The slogan 'equal opportunity, unequal outcome' is a massive con. Wealth in all its forms means opportunity for ourselves and our children. So unequal wealth means unequal opportunity. Capitalism creates and relies on economic inequality - which is why we have to get over it.
