Description

Acharya Prashant explains that inequality is not inherently an injustice but rather the very aim of life as taught by society. He argues that everyone is conditioned to 'get ahead' of others, which by definition creates inequality. Even those who protest against the extravagant wealth of others often share the same underlying principle; their grievance is not with the existence of inequality itself, but with being on the 'wrong end' of it. He posits that if the system were upended, a new master would simply emerge from the ranks of the losers because the animalistic drive to be the 'lion' or the exploiter remains unchanged within the human psyche.
