Economic Equality: Socialists argue that wealth should be distributed in an equitable manner to prevent poverty. This also reduces excessive privilege.
Equality of Opportunity: Everyone should have the same chances in life, regardless of their circumstances.
Social Justice: Socialists believe that true equality requires addressing structural barriers in society. For example, people from lower socio-economic backgrounds face disadvantages in obtaining quality education. This is a systematic problem as education is what allows for people to improve their living standards.
Universal Rights: All individuals should have access to basic rights such as education, healthcare, and housing. This is not just a right that is stated, but one that is actively provided by the state.
