>You can argue that inequality is necessary to create incentives. I don't personally believe that's true, but I understand the argument as a reasonable moral position. But to argue that some people are morally worth more than others is to discard the very notion of human equality.

This statement is a twisted idea of equality. People are born equal but they do not remain equal. A doctor is not equal to wife beater.
