So what exactly are you saying, society must guarantee every person a successful career? Don’t you think that may be a bit beyond the scope of what society is capable of? I’m all for strong universal education, universally guaranteed housing, healthcare, and food, so I’m quite a bit more socialistic than the mainstream, don’t get me wrong. And this coming from a guy in a pretty high tax bracket – high enough to pay a lot of income tax, not rich enough to get around high taxes by making a lot off of capital gains. And I don’t mind taxation at all, wish it was going to better causes. But there are always going to be strata in society, and there are always going to be people who just don’t do as well. Equalizing income/success hasn’t really gone too well when tried in the past on a mass scale…
