Would you rather live in a society where everyone economically equal or a society where you had the potential to gain wealth?

A society where you had the potential to gain wealth

This answer will come from my opinion.

In my opinion, I would rather live in a society where you had the potential to gain wealth.

The reason why I would rather live in a society where I had the potential to gain wealth is because I don't think a society would function properly if everyone had the same "economic status."

I'd rather live in a society where people have to work to have the potential of becoming wealthy, not just myself.

If everyone had the same "economic status", then education and things of that sort would be useless since everyone would have the same economic status anyway.

If everyone had the same "economic status", then people would stop thriving to complete their higher education, people wouldn't have the courage to risk making a business, since they will still be economically equal as someone that works at McDonald's.

Someone could have 3  Master's degree, but if everyone was economically equal, they would still be economically equal to a person that doesn't have any higher education.

This is the reason why I would rather live in a society where you had the potential to gain wealth.

a countries leader should be motivated by the common good of the country.

the answer to this question is the third option. hope this
