Equality, forced, doesn't work in the world, never has

The World Is Marching Toward Anarchy
By Robert Kaplan

Everyone loves equality: equality of races, of ethnic groups, of sexual orientations, and so on. The problem is, however, that in geopolitics equality usually does not work very well. For centuries Europe had a rough equality between major states that is often referred to as the balance-of-power system. And that led to frequent wars. East Asia, by contrast, from the 14th to the early 19th centuries, had its relations ordered by a tribute system in which China was roughly dominant. The result, according to political scientist David C. Kang of the University of Southern California, was a generally more peaceful climate in Asia than in Europe.

The fact is that domination of one sort or another, tyrannical or not, has a better chance of preventing the outbreak of war than a system in which no one is really in charge; where no one is the top dog, so to speak. That is why Columbia University's Kenneth Waltz, arguably America's pre-eminent realist, says that the opposite of "anarchy" is not stability, but "hierarchy."

Irregardless of the shit you post, racist liar leroy. The important criterion is "equality under the law". No two people are equal. That is not the pint, except tpo a racist and bigot like you. Still, in America we treat people equally under the law.

Same rights
Same privileges.
Same opportunities.

Only a bigot like you woiuld keep focusing on attempts to legally enforce inequality, limitations on liberty and freedom.

You prove your status every day on this board. Bigoted, dishonest, dishonorable, liar leroy..

Once again you've lied - it's not about Equality Under the LAW, that's not what you or special interest groups want, they want to bring down people, not law, they want to destroy ideals, morals, society, to hold people back, not make them equal.
