We’re getting closer and closer to the utopia all the little idiotic socialists in the world believe in - only it’s going to look different than they imagined. To paraphrase John Lennon -

“Imagine no ambition,
because you can’t achieve,
more than the state allows you,
of your dreams you’ve been relieved.”

When you take away the ability of individuals to distinguish themselves based on their effort, you take away their drive, their dreams, and essentially their humanity. If you want to do well in a society like that, try to set yourself up with some kind of under the table business selling alcohol or drugs. There will be a lot more consumption of those - as people while away their lives without a sense of purpose.

“Imagine no ambition,
because you can’t achieve,
more than the state allows you,
and keeps you on your knees”

FTFY.
