Why can't freedom and equality coexist? I'd like to hear your reasoning behing that.
Freedom and Equality can't coexist because we choose it not to. With Equality there can be no rich. We must all be better than our neighbor, we must have a better yard, a better car. Our PC's must be better than the guy we are talking to on the internet.
Anything is possible if you want it bad enough. I guess some of us don't want equality that much
