Equal distribution of wealth is not possible, either.
"Liberalism" in a nutshell: to those who have shall be given.
Nothing to do with liberalism, Lit, merely my considered opinion. I suppose it's easier for you to imply that than try explaining why you think my opinion is wrong, though.
Tell the audience how you would do it.
You first - its not like you have not been asked.
OK--assuming that you actually asked me to tell you why I
don't think equal distribution of wealth is possible.
It's basic human nature, really. Most people don't want to part with their earthly possessions. In fact, quite a few are prepared to fight for them. It's all over the news, with stories of break-ins, shooting intruders and the like, as well as apparent here, in quite a few recent posts about gun control.
As westerners, I'd say that the average member on this board has more than the average person on Earth but I have yet to hear of anyone here planning on sending a fair share of those possessions to the less fortunate in, say, Somalia.
Feel free to prove me wrong and send your computer to someone there.
Your turn. Tell me why equal distribution of wealth is a practical possibility. Furthermore, tell me how to do it and live to see the next day.
