You have to live on minimum wage without benefits , and the average C.E.O. makes 383 times the pay of those working for him. Is this equality? You don't have health insurance because the monthly rates would force you to go without food. You have health insurance because you work for one of the few companies today, providing some benefits. Is this equality? You couldn't go to college because these for profit excuses of higher learning have presidents making million dollar salaries. You went to the college of your choice because your daddy made his money the old fashioned way, he inherited it. Is this equality?You are overweight, drink too much, and your caloric intake consists mostly of sugary and salt filled cheap food. You are fit,you pay for a gym membership, and you eat expensive organically grown food. Is this equality? You get caught doing drugs and spend time in jail. You get caught doing drugs and your pricey lawyer gets the case thrown out. In America equality has two distinct definitions.
