i heard alot of corruption going on with Ikea founder,many billions stashed away in swissland and tax avoidance/evasion.
Yes, I've heard. But that doesn't detract from the fact that in an egalitarian society, there's immense pressure not to flaunt your wealth, even if you're the richest man in that country. Of course your personal morals are another issue altogether.
... yes all humans are equally important and have same basic worth but it does not say one cannot be more superior than others or more well off.
You may be more famous, more wealthy, more intelligent, more handsome, but that doesn't make you 'superior' or 'better'.
No grudges a rich man his wealth in an egalitarian society if it's not ill-gotten. But if everyone has the same basic worth, then concepts of superiority or inferiority are moot. You may be more famous, more wealthy, more intelligent, more handsome, but that doesn't make you 'superior' or 'better'.
So why flaunt what you have? What are you trying to prove to your neighbours if everyone has the same fundamental worth and rights as you? Besides, many tycoons know instinctively that their wealth was obtained primarily on the backs of exploited lowly paid workers especially in developing countries with weak labour laws – so there's also some guilt restraining excessively ostentatious behaviour.
Of course it does. That's the very essence of what "better" means.
... ur integrity as a human being deserving of food shelter and a minimum standard of living and social status is guaranteed but it doesnt mean others cant be better or greater than u.
Better at making money, better at earning fame, but not an intrinsically better person.
Having a higher IQ and more symmetrical and proportional features (the definition of good looking) are both intrinsic human traits.
How intrinsic can genetically determined biological traits be? A giraffe is better than a mouse because its DNA codes for longer bones?
Let me ask you this... do you consider yourself better than a chimpanzee or would you suggest that you're intrinsically equal to a chimp?
If you consider genes, we share 99% of our DNA with chimps. Not a strong case for intrinsic superiority. On many levels, chimps show more co-operative and sociable behaviour than the majority of humans. Definitely less self-destructive too.
I leave it to you to figure out where humans lie in the pecking order.

One thing is certain: Mother Earth now will be in a much healthier state without humans.
It would be in a more natural state but that doesn't mean it will be "healthier" as the meaning of the word "healthy" has human longevity as its basis.
Life expectancy before human beings before they started controlling the environment they lived in was between 30 and 40 max. Everything was natural at the time. No processed foods, no additives, no man made pollution. Nature simply took its course and many children did not reach adulthood.
They died from a lack of medical care
Your logic is flawed.
Medical care is just part and parcel of the advances that mankind has made to take control of the environment they live in. It works in tandem with a much better understanding of what makes us tick.
like i said, your logic in post #35 is flawed. you have not addressed it.
you were suggesting that despite a clean environment, people were dying young.
