Mises on Equality
Posted: February 6, 2010 Filed under: Equality, Inequality, Utilitarianism Leave a comment »“Equality under the law was in their opinion not designed to correct the inexorable facts of the universe and to make natural inequality disappear. It was, on the contrary, the device to secure for the whole of mankind the maximum benefits it can derive from it. Hence no man-made institutions should prevent a man from attaining that station in which he can best serve his fellow citizens.”
Human Action, page 838 (XXXV, 3)
