What is "economic equality"?

Different people have different skills at creating things I value. The economic value of a bodybuilder is higher for me when I need heavy things to be moved. When I need sowing, sowing will have higher value for me. It can be one or the other. I might equally need stones and pants, but still it does not change that the teenage, 40kg sowing girl is best suited for one not the other. I would not change their places and pretend they are equal. It seems very irresponsible and potentially dangerous.

Do people deserve equal opportunities? Of course! You need to be a sociopath to think otherwise.
The "equality of usefulness" of different skills to different people however is against physics, biology, psychology and any other knowledge we have.

I will not be as valuable to NBA fan as LeBron... or whatever his name is... I do not value him.

If you like the idea of collectivism, socialism or communism, you must not be aware or ignore simple questions/statements of logic.

In your opinion, knowing that collectivists cannot argue their position well, could it be that it is because the ideology is very flawed and they did not spend enough time to think it through very well?

Of course the reason could be that someone is just dumb. Not their fault really. But choosing to be ignorant in the age of information is the real cancer of today.

If you are genuinely confused, let's talk it through. Do you think the communism could be obsolete already?

Can you make a list of all achievements of these very temporary communist communes or communist countries?

Can you make a list of achievements of (semi)free enterprise?

I will help you with it. The first one is 0. Only bare survival in a lot of suffering until they died.
The second: you don't have enough life to make the list... but the biggest eradication of human poverty and suffering in history, we achieved today seems like a good start.
Creating the very tech we communicate through... why would this achievement alone be worse to suffering, ending in death, whenever communism is tried?

Why do you think that every single time it has been tried out, it ended in the biggest human suffering in history?
Could it be because they did not know the ideology as good as you do? Or could they have mistaken exactly the same, as every collectivist does?
Do you think it is worth the risk of death of a billion people to check it out again, while capitalism, even while suppressed by socialism of the state, created greatest well-being in history?

Could this be a clear indication, that there is something wrong with the idea of collectivism?
Could it be that people like to complain and blame everything, because of lack of knowledge?
Would it be wiser to learn about these very standard issue, that were addressed countless times, before trying to change the world?
... with the ideology that has proven itself to be the most terrible for human kind?

Does capitalism have problems?

Sure! But I see deciding about my time/capital as freedom and I think we should try the full freedom, since the partial freedom gave us best times in recorded human history, as opposed to going back to the 200 year old idea of a guy, who was really bad with his money, blamed everyone for it, and his idea that it wasn't his fault slaughtered 300 million people in last 100 years.

I do not think that building a society on thinking that taking what is not mine from others has any chance, nor that it is a morally sound principle. It cannot be fairly applied to 2 people, therefore applying it to masses will always end in a catastrophe... as history has proven over and over...

Freedom of every individual resonates with my values.

I want for you to be an exclusive controller of your life.

It is yours to do whatever you like, as long as you do not harm anyone.

Still me:

I believe that every interaction between humans should be voluntary. I want for each individual to be the only controller of their lives and their property. I am an anarchist, a capitalist, a voluntaryist, but most of all, I am an individual, who does not recognize your value by the status you achieved in an imposed, imaginary collective. No matter who you are; if you respect others, respect me, I will always respect you.

PEACE AND LOVE IN ANARCHY
