My skills can provide more value than others. It's natural that my pay is not equal to others.

only because you won the lottery of birth. your brain isn't somehow genetically better than others' brains. you had access to more bridges/ladders early in your development, that's it. most people cannot grow further instead of bridges/ladders they meet walls/moats.

> your brain isn't somehow genetically better than others' brains.

You're going to have to elaborate on that, because AFAIK humanity has not solved intelligence to the point that we can say it is entirely nurture. That makes it reasonable to assume that it is part nature, which means that yes. It is genetically better than others' brains. And there's nothing wrong with that.

Isn't the logical conclusion of this that the Darwin's, Newton's and Einstein's of this world weren't genetically predisposed, merely consequences of fate?

You don't believe success is a combination of nature and nurture?

some are more equal than others
