>Woah the air is thick with BS.

Then close your mouth please.

>Just because someone is rich doesn't mean [...] To start a business or to study or to become whatever they could be.

OK, but what does what I previously said have to do with your rant on billionaires? None of that is a retort on my comment your were quoting, nor does it disprove my point, in fact it proves it that people aren't equal being a natural state of things in humans.

>Eventually People may not be equal or have equal skills and talents and that's fine but everyone should have an equal opportunity.

Agree that people should all get equal opportunities, but again, none of my previous arguments had anything to say that would disagree with this.

To add to this the conclusion of my point on your reply, you can give everyone all the equal opportunities you want, the results will never be equal because people aren't equal and they never will be: Some have high IQ, some have low IQ, some are tall, some are short, some can study all day and night with just 4h of sleep, some need 9h of sleep to function, some have supportive parents, some have toxic parent, etc, you get the point, so their results in life, be it academic and financial, will guaranteed to be different even if they had the same equal opportunities.

And no amount of forced equality can equalize for these factors when it comes to outcome, same how in the olympics no equality compensation factor is applied to the results. You're either the best athlete in the world or you're not, nobody cares if you had rich parents or poor conditions growing up that hindered you from being the best. Sucks for you but that's life, get used to it. Same in international economic competition between nations, it's a cutthroat dog eat dog world out there and no country will give you leeway at trade negotiations just because you discovered steel alloys 400 years later than them which got you to be invaded and plundered by 100 more developed nations in that time.
