Have you ever wondered about what does 'equality' means?

Have you ever wondered about what does 'equality' means?

If you trying to think about this for like thousands and thousands hours and also think about with this issue with capitalism, you will realise something seriously wrong with your country--society.
But you shouldn't stop there.

If you stop there, you will just keep complaining about the country--politician--society.

Something that is democratic is based on the idea that everyone should have equal rights and should be involved in making important decisions.

quoted from Collins Cobuild dictionary 2006.



It's all come down to the people misunderstand and misconception about the what really means to be the democratic system is.. It's not utopia--imaginary world. It can be a real.




You probably will say--utopia. But it isn't.
I can simply prove with existing countries like Switzerland, Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, etc.

Of course, those countries weren't perfect but it's better than anywhere else....


I didn't even read whole article but here is the one example:

Switzerland, Iceland, Denmark and Norway are the world's happiest countries, according to the 2015 World Happiness Report, which is put out by some influential economists.
.....
What are they doing right that the rest of the world is doing wrong?

Top 10 countries with the lowest economic inequality:
Belarus, Ukraine, Finland, Netherlands, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Sweden, Iceland, Slovenia, Norway.

quoted from Top countries on economic equality | Sustainability for all--probably published at 2006.


Equality issues were not only mean to be human equality issues like gender, racial equality issues.
You have to understand fundamentally 'what equality means'.

Don't limit your mind!




Broken democracy system.
 
You can see how serious the US's economic inequality issues were:

The difference between Western Europe and the United States in this regard is particularly striking: "While the top 1% income share was close to 10% in both regions in 1980, it rose only slightly to 12% in 2016 in Western Europe while it shot up to 20% in the United States. Meanwhile, in the United States, the bottom 50% income share decreased from more than 20% in 1980 to 13% in 2016."

This also relate to the racial inequality issue from my previous article - Inequality issue really exist in the U.S. @ June 12, 2019:

Broken justice system.

That means broken democracy system.

No wonder, when I was in Malaysia for learn English, many of European travellers who I met during semester break, talked about 'how strange the U.S.' democracy system is.'

Broken justice system.

And broken wealth distribution system--company's worker won't receive company's profit, company's profit will not distribute to the employee.
