Equality of Outcome
Equality of outcome does not mean that everyone gets the same deal. A cornerstone of Socialist thought is each according to his need. Steve the technical writer has a family to provide for, Mike the adjunct prof, though he would like one very much, does not. Regardless, Mike the adjunct prof, without a family, does not need as much as Steve.
Granted, Mike the adjunct prof could have chosen a more lucrative career path, but the world would be a better place if people were able to apply their best talents and skills in a way that helps society. It's not the way things are, but it's a goal that can be achieved. Educating people helps society. No one wants a society full of ignorant people. All I ask is a living wage.

Even adjusting for Belinda
Even adjusting for Belinda and little John, if you're making $4.15/hr, I'd still get royally screwed.
Well, quite frankly Steve, I'
Well, quite frankly Steve, I'm not in charge of the fucking world so what I think isn't much of a goddam threat now is it?
Mike, Mike, I don''t think
Mike, Mike, I don't think *you* personally would screw me. But I think Commie Tommie Daschle would if he got the chance. When someone takes stuff I worked very hard to get, that's stealing. I don't think the government deserves almost half my income, let alone more.
