    Hi Wim

    I would like to see the case between equality and inequality
    argued from both point of view. I think both are inadequate
    ways of thinking. I would argue for everyone to have basic
    provisions of housing, food, healthcare, education so that
    they can flourish and we can see what quality they have to
    find in themselves and perhaps also offer society. After that
    we need to decide what we are going to do with the extra
    resources. At the moment we allow people to use them
    for all kinds of low and high quality activity. Surely we
    need to find a way of using our resources more for high
    that ow quality activity?

    regards
    David M
