It is not an inequality issue, it’s an IQ and ability issue if you can call it an issue. People that have higher intelligence and motivation are rewarded for ability and results. IQ is inherited so one can only do what they can with what they have. Life was never fair, nothing is. To forcibly take profit from successful people and give to less successful doesn’t do society well. A society should help people in need but not people who can make a living and survive. If you take from successful people to the level that everyone has the same amount there is no motivation to succeed. Why work hard for ones that don’t work hard? A slippery slope to communism.

Certain demographics constantly peruse government for $ for perceived past wrongs. However the people paying never did these wrongs. Their idea of fair is anything but fair. Ones that never pay into our system want the $$ from the same system, how does that work? It’s better to have to work for what you have, better mentally and physically. Welfare keeps people in welfare to a great extent. People are not made “equal “ per se. we all have different levels of IQ and ability. Many human factors that limit ability to be more successful. Live with it, handouts keep you weak. In fact I would assume government prefers some demographics to remain weak. Let them be self determining and you’ll get a more stronger adversary more capable of taking control.

@hideinmind why don't you research the subject before giving ludicrous answers?

@hideinmind I wasn't talking about incorrect history or how IQ is defined or that it isn't simple. IQ is inherited , try looking at current information.
