Equality is and should be well spread out between everyone. Not one person should have power over you like how Locke says, “A state also of equality, wherein all the power and jurisdiction is reciprocal, no one having more than another, there being nothing more evident than that creatures of the same species and rank, promiscuously faculties, should also be equal one amongst another, without subordination or subjection…” Men should be equal unless told otherwise by their lord or master, that person being God.

Hunter Depalma ECON 221 Butler February 13, 2015 Racism & Income Disparity: Income Effect Income disparity is an ongoing complication within the United States not only between men and women, but between races.
