A Question of Choice

Do you want to support principles that you believe will lead to an egalitarian society or those that will sustain inequality forever? Or, do you want to remain a pessimist (or a "realist" or a "pragmatist") and rule out the possibility of an equitable society? Or, would you rather remain indifferent?

The principles can be anything, can be unsound according to economic theorists, can be ridden with contradictions according to social scientists, can be non-scientific according to acknowledged scientists, can be illogical according to mathematicians, can be non-evolutionary according to Darwinian biologists--but none of these matter as far as this question is concerned. What matters is your conviction that a certain set of principles has a higher probability than other sets to create an equitable (in a social, political and economic sense) society. The principles that you support could change over time but you don't change your support because you stopped believing in the possibility of equality but because conditions and logic of the day suggest otherwise. The assumption is that your choice of these principles will be driven by your desire to live in an egalitarian society.

So, what is your choice?
