If I were a democrat debate coach, I’d give you an “A” for good democrat argument redirection technique.

Hahaha, thank you MrB! :hug:

I didn’t refer to the unsuccessful as slothful and lazy.

I referred to the slothful and lazy as slothful and lazy.

If you say so, but it sure did seem heavily implied that if you weren't successful it was because you were slothful and lazy.

A good democrat, of course, would convolute the argument to divert away from the truth of the statement that

equalizing economic conditions inherently involves the unavoidable punishment of good choices and the rewarding of poor choices.

Please define what you mean by "equalizing economic conditions" because I have an idea of what you might mean but before I respond I want to make sure I was reading you correctly.

“economic conditions” = “outcomes”

Leftists are all about the outcomes, and not about examining the steps taken to get to that outcome.

So, to them, that someone is genuinely slothful and lazy is of no consequence - if they are poor and someone else is not, “that’s not fair”.

“Fairness” requires “more equal” outcomes, regardless of effort or quality of choices.
