It is feasible to believe a dystopian reality on economic inequality. Some economists have even argued that it was inequality that toppled vast empires, due to the inherent improductive consequences of economic inequality.

Inequality can be a problem alone, even if all else is equal ,because the greatest danger to freedom is the concentration of power, and what is inequality but the concentration of wealth and power into fewer hands?
