I don't understand this discussion...I mean of course everybody is equal - we're all just flesh and blood that lives for a few years and then drops dead. To say one piece of flesh is more important than another is absurd. We have no choice over where we are born and to whom, and these are the major factors that determine the course of your life. Therefore, people have very limited power to change their lives. Money gives you that power. But don't fool yourself into thinking that because you are in the fortunate position to be able to influence your life that everybody else should be able to. Yes we are all of equal worth.......(well, most of us)
