24. That would be a much more perfect world indeed.

In my perfect world, there wouldn't BE garishly wealth, as they would choose to share their fortune to the point they themselves no longer have money or other forms of material wealth to any great degree.

There probably wouldn't even be money as we know it now.

I don't want a world where everyone is the same. Even with equal opportunity (which we really don't have), the outcomes will be different because we're all different. We have different tastes, different interests, different aptitudes and work ethics.

It's the gross inequality that gets to me.
