    If companies start giving everyone fair pay/equity all the system collapse, even China the most communist country in the world right now don’t do that, inequity it’s what keep a certain amount of money flowing, unless you want all people dying of hunger or worst. I’m not saying capitalism is the perfect system but the imperfection of it it’s what make it work. we can’t pretend a perfect world is possible and make a living on dreaming. there will be always poor people and rich people just like there are smart people and dumb people, no everyone is equal.

    I mean real world isn’t equal.

      It isn’t black and white either.

      It’s cooperation that got us here. It was that cooperation that made the infrastructure which without these people could not have accumulated the amount of wealth they are accumulating. The government’s sole purpose is insuring and guiding this cooperation. This should also include guiding a reasonable distribution of wealth. It will not be a prosperous society if only a few men have all the wealth and resources. This does not mean we should all have equal wealth either. But as a society, maybe we should rethink how we guide this distribution.
