I don't understand why inequality is inherently bad. It seems fine to me. Force is bad, and sometimes inequality is created through force - but inequality is not *in and of itself* bad. I often (not always) interpret people who dislike inequality as envious and dissatisfied.

Again to clarify - in the cases where force is used (and there are a LOT of these, mostly by the government) this can significantly increase inequality, and thus inequality is a sign of oppression of the lower class. This "inequality-by-force" is definitely bad.

Inequality is an inevitable result of freedom. Communism is the exact opposite. No freedom and perfect equality. Been this way for 5,000+ years of human history

And you’re 100% right. Lowest classes of people are relatively better off than they ever have been, which is also a result of freedom, specifically free markets

Because people in the bottom poorest percents are only doing well by measurements devised by the successful sectors of society. Maybe they are not by their own measures.

Not quite. I was trust into poverty and I don't blame the wealthy, many of which have done everything they could to help me, while the socialists who taught me were also the ones who led me here. So I know exactly who to blame: people telling me to look not at them but the rich.

This is a bad argument, sounds logical but it isnt Poor exist because value from agriculture is so bad that they can sustain themselves. This is due to advance in science and excess production

Not really. Poverty is the default state. And lack of training in working hard can get you to poverty. It's what happened to me.

The problem here is more about the fact that the gap is widening at a faster and faster rate.

Why is that a problem?
