So your conclusion is by making things more equal...its really less equal?
A flat tax rate is the fairest (most equal) thing for everyone. Now while I don't agree everything should be privatized (most things should though), I do agree that a flat tax rate is a great idea.
My solution to the privatization issue is a two-tiered system for things like education, health care, etc. I know its a terrible comparison, but kind of like Playstation plus. So everyone would get adequate free health care/education/services...but people if they have the money can opt to pay extra for their services and receive higher quality services.
So say two people are lined up at the hospital for a kidney transplant, a poor man and a rich man, but it will be a 1 month wait for the surgery. Well in that case the rich man can pull out his cheque book and pay to jump ahead in line and get his transplant right away, while the poor man who will get it for free has to wait the month.
I think something like that is perfectly fair because then the lower class will get the adequate health care they are somehow "entitled" to in todays society, while the middle and upper class can pay for theirs and get premium care.
