One thing: I'm not wrong. The people supporting inequality and injustices between social classes in America and around the world (you) are wrong.

Does inequality trump total welfare? If we were all equal and as a whole considerably worse off, would that be better than if we were all better off but less equal? I would argue total welfare is more important than equality, and I think capitalism supports that argument; socialism most certainly promotes greater equality, but the same cannot be said in regard to welfare.
So, what is more important to you? I thought we were talking about what was best for society - now you're talking equality. Equality does not always mean that society as a whole is better off as you seem to think.
