You guessed wrong. Equality is when you are paid for what you've done (multiplied by an education coefficient - if you follow Marxist thinking or ideolody).
E.g. Bill Gates should have earned quite a few bucks for his services, but nowhere near his billions - that's money earned by thousands of Microsoft's employees and their supporters (people of countries where Microsoft's offices are).
your ideology destroys the incentive to create, this is undeniable, you only have to look at history to see how countries have faired that have tried to implement this.
Millions of people dying from lack of food, I guess that is a good result for you? At least no one was exploited......
I really love Obama! Not as a leader (all hope is long gone), but because he trolled conservatives so wonderfully

The lust, desire and greed for money has become a form of worship. Many people measure their self worth based upon what they have. For the love/worship of money people have lied, killed, cheated, stolen and committed other horrendous crimes. Many have committed suicide when they lost their wealth.
Capitalism in its true form is not vulture capitalism and that is what it has morphed into in many instances.
I at least partially agree with what you've said above, but the problem lies with culture and values, not an economic system.
Would you say that people where more or less greedy/lustful ect a 100 years ago when the U.S. was much more capitalistic?
What President Obama said was that a successful business depends upon the public infrastructure to be successful. The goods are shipped on public roads and use public airports; workers are educated at public expense; the internet was created by the government and Amazon.com couldn't have been started without it, etc. and that increasing taxes on people who can afford those taxes, so that we can fund a government that helps their success isn't such a bad thing.
Jack Gilchrist, who showed up in this Romney ad below, went on Covutto and agreed with everything President Obama said.
THIS IS THE ROMNEY AD:
Below is a must see, towards the middle of this video (at 3:35) below, Jack Gilchrist told Covutto that Obama's point was actually correct:
So now you think Obama will be reducing the deficit? From what, to what? Come on, you cant be this gullible..
