Americans don’t all have equal jobs, equal education, equal ability, or equal money. explain what you think equality means in this country.

Communism, or socialism,  was built upon the ideas of equally sharing all opportunities, pay, resources. It had to do mainly with the ideas of losing social classes and that all property is publicly owned, a person is paid by what they contribute to society. Democracy, the government America is founded upon, is built upon the ideas of giving people the power to have their voice heard in their government, allowing them to decide what they want and allowing them to choose. This shows the difference between equality in different styles of government. Communism, in the purest form, is founded upon the ideas of equal resources and that property is not privately owned but is equal amongst all people. Democracy, conversely, follows more on the path that people are equal in the law. Democracy is a political democracy, socialism is material and monetary equality. You could continue into different forms of both Communism or Democracy as this is only a general definition.
