I'd like to know why the unequal distribution of wealth is a bad thing. This seems to be a major premise from those on the left, but it's like you just assume it's a bad thing without every really providing evidence or justifying the premise.
Forcing me to work for somebody else is what the distribution of wealth is.
Distribution of wealth is Marxism.
Wealth is nothing more than ones labor, wealth is my labor in a tangible form I can trade for another person's labor.
That is why its bad, distribution of wealth is stealing, forced slavery, servitude, socialist/marxism.
Wealth is the physical representation of my labor, my work, my success, or my dumb luck.
Again, its the unequal distribution of intelligence that is the problem.
I have highlighted where your argument breaks down, comrade.
We can not know how much labour a worker we never met put into a chair, nor whether it was more or less than his fellow-worker beside him. Yet, when we see the chairs, we value them for ourselves- do I like them? Would I want one? What might I fairly trade for one? We do this subconsciously before we think of it and can assess whether we consider a fair exchange for the chair. Thus value is subjective, and labour invested is but one potential factor.
