We're all just people. No one is "better" or "worse" than others. Why would anyone say that certain people deserve certain benifits? Why should people get paid differently? We all should have a job and we should do it to the best of our ability. Not everyone can be a doctor and that's OK, but one shouldn't be a doctor so that they can be paid alot. Money is just corrupt ultimetely. It leads us to wanting to have more. Everyone (between a certain age range) should be required to work. We shouldn't discriminate based on sex, race, religion, etc. But why would some people not want to live in this world? Do you people think certain people deserve special benifits? I don't see how they would. Let us all do our job to the best of our ability and not whether we are needed less than another person.

People who decide to be doctors likely decided to do so because of their own passion, not because of money alone. They should feel accomplished to make it through medical school in itself and do not expect additional rewards.

Of course people who volunteer at a soup kitchen are more important to society than terrorists, but they shouldn't be paid differently based on that. People who go to school and get a good job shouldn't get paid more than others who don't because the job you enjoy doing in itself should be it's own reward.

I'm all for equality and I am not prejudiced in the least. You don't know me, so stop making assumptions that you do.

Of course some people are better and others are worse. I guess you think terrorists are the same as volunteers who work at soup kitchens. The fact that you can't see the difference is frightening.
People get paid differently because some people went to school, became educated, learned skills that are valued in our society ... while other people are, well, you.
Please grow up.

I'm sure you treat guys with good jobs the same as guys with crappy jobs, and ugly guys the same as hot guys, and short guys the same as tall guys.
If you have a problem with inequality, take it up with the Man Upstairs and quit being a whiny lib hypocrite.
Edit:
Because unless you are Mother Teresa reborn, you are a regular human being with your own fair share of biases and prejudices, so therefore preaching only makes you, and other preachy types like you, a hypocrite. I just don't believe that anyone white, black, green, purple or blue is entirely without prejudice.
It seems that the real problem is when a certain group of people are in power and the ones who aren't don't like it.
Edit:
I would like to live in a better world, but we have to try and learn to adapt to the one we have, because I don't see it changing any time soon. Not for the better anyway.

Next time you head to the doctor or ER, explain to them why they are no better than the 30 year old guy standing next to the fry vat at McDonald's.
For someone who spews tolerance and equality, why do you (in one of your answers to someone else's question) refer to gay people as gross? Doesn't seem to be a tolerant and equal opinion. It appears you believe people are equal only if they're equal on your terms. What's that word I'm looking for...oh yeah, hypocrite.

I'm pretty sure that our little JJ is actually another poster on YA who is just here a-trolling.
I got a nasty email for responding negatively to JJ so I watched and they both came on line at the same time.

I wish Hillary and the rest of her big government liberal colleagues would re-read the Declaration of Independence and note that the founders intent in establishing this country was to grant our citizens a right to “life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” No one is guaranteed happiness, but simply the freedom to pursue it. But that’s not what Hillary wants. She wants to try and guarantee everyone in the country happiness, and she’s will to go bankrupt spending your tax dollars to do it!
Stop with your socialist agenda.
