#2 I think Cheaderhead very appropriately means egalitarian

Egalitarianism (from French égal, meaning "equal")—or, rarely, equalitarianism—is a trend of thought that favors equality for particular categories of, or for all, living entities.

By the way are guillotines still used in France or have the French Socialist sequestered the engineering plans for the devise while they are in office?

#4 If the government really treated everyone equally then surely they would all pay exactly the same for the government services!? Regardless of what they earned privately.

#5 They want everything equal.
NO.

It cannot and will never be equal, no matter what you try.

There will always be rich and there will always be poor. Now grow up.

#6 Sorry newc they don't want everything equal.

They want everything OTHER THAN THEMSELVES equal.

Don't forget the Temptations..."Politicians say more taxes will solve everything!"
