So?

The world is not fair, and when we try and make it fair, we make a world where even those who would have less due to less talent, now have far less.

Would you rather make $40 an hour for your effort, while a better looking person makes $45 an hour, or would you rather live in a world where both of you made $20 an hour?

I will take the $40, thank you very much.

Lovely false dilemma you've got going there.

Do you want to live in a world where you live in constant and real fear for your life but make $50 an hour or one where you make $5 an hour but live in absolute safety?

Odd, I live on one of the safest places in the world, and the most capitalistic, so not sure how you say something can't be both.

Theres also no proof that having a social safety net prevents causes a difference between $20 an hour and $40 an hour in absolute renumeration assuming of course the cost of living is identical between the two different renumeration rates.
