>>> The only thing society should do is ensure everyone has the same rights in regard to the Law no matter how rich, how poor, how different you may be. Anything beyond is just a call for arms-race to make everyone the same in every aspect (and incidentally, to render everyone poor by default).

And that's just your point of view. You're just arguing over what society should be, neither of you are privileged to The One True Definition.

Maybe, but I think you'll find it hard to find people who don't agree that the Law should be the same for everyone, philosophically speaking.

Sure. The other HNer appears to claim that's not _all_ it is, you appear to have claimed that's all it is.
