@maiyannah @verius @sim equality of outcome is like the government schemes which treat everyone identically regardless of their actual needs. Alexander Berkman mentions this dichotomy in Now and After and says that in most cases equality of opportunity is the most desirable thing although in some cases equalizing outcome helps to build confidence. He gives the example of post-revolutionary Russia in 1921. The communist vanguard give themselves far more rations than anyone else, despite food shortages due to war and economic blockades. He says that in the aftermath of war it would have been better for all party members to receive the same rations as the workers, since this would have mitigated the envy and accusations of favoritism or corruption and helped to reinforce a sense of common struggle against class enemies.
