In the past weeks I have made greate progress in the development and presentation of Free Equitism. Though I have not yet decided how long the presentation paper should be, most of the fundamentals are now established. As a teaser, I will give you an exerpt from what I have so far.

No one can truthfully say that a child born into poverty has an equal opportunity to succeed as the child of a billionaire. This is simply not true. The chains of poverty are as real as the chains of racism, sexism, or any other harmful inequality that has existed in our society. In response to the inequality of poverty, our society has taken upon itself the task of helping, through welfare systems, those born without the benefits of sufficient income. This is a noble effort, but this method of helping fails irrevocably because it does not attempt to solve the problem; it merely treats the symptoms. Herein lies the fundamental problem.
It is the total inequality of opportunity in our society that makes political equality, as well as true freedom, unattainable. In a society where every man was given a truly equal chance at success, there would be no inherited poverty, and therefore every human would be able to determine their own future. In such a society, a man's success or failure would be his alone...not the endowment of an unjust social structure. This is true freedom. If our country is to truly be free, we must strive for real equality. We must build a society in which all men are literally created equal, thus living out the real meaning of our nation's creed.

Hope you found it interesting and revolutionary ;)

Until next time...
