Do you want capitalism?

I'm surprised you are so candid. Most socialists promise that they can enact some capitalism-socialism-hybrid--though it becomes increasingly socialist over time. Socialism aims to put everyone on a level playing field. No one can have too much or too little. No one can starve, but no one can soar. And to be creative...well..there are guidelines for that.
We need to starve to appreciate having bread every day. We need to be desperate to appreciate success.
I don't want to live in a world where everyone is the same. I don't want to live in a world where putting in my best effort yields me nothing.
