Odd discussion

There is a odd discussion going in the in German society. What is more important, fairness or everybody should have the same chances?

What is your opinion?

There are people, who argue that it is more important having equal chances instead of having a fair distribution of wealth.  These are the people, who do not want to change the distribution of wealth in Germany.

But everybody should have the same opportunity to earn millions and millions and having enough criminal potential to become a tax refugee.

I totally disagree. My opinion is that the produced wealth in a society should be fairly distributed. I also strongly believe that the argument against this attitude is coming from institutions, which have only the interest of the richer ones in mind.

But what is your opinion?
