    How can people be for "Equality of outcome"? It take away any incentive to be better at what you do?

    One person works hard for 10 hours.... another person basically wastes their way through 10 hours and they should both be paid the same? Is that what equality of outcome means?

    As opposed to equality of opportunity... Socialism in it's various forms doesn't work very well. Things get bad when individual rights and property rights are abrogated and corporate state interests are merged ie the national socialist party (Nazi).

    Just remember Socialism or Progressivism is for you NOT them. This is why prominent Dem politicians are so hypocritical, Bernie Sanders wealth, AOC's 14 thousand dollar attire, Pelosi's 20 thousand dollar fridge, Maxine's mansion. They are for the collective, conservatives favor individual rights which is why socialism is so un American. Socialism spends what capitalism produces. There are producers and non producers. Every individual has different aptitudes, motivations, etc. basically equality of outcome recedes to the lowest common denominator. People forget that the normal state of human existence for pretty much all of human history is poverty not affluence. No form of economic governance has brought more of humanity out of poverty than capitalism.

    Socialism is preferred by non and low producers. There is the occasional hypocritical affluent type that promotes it however.
