The earth provides abundant needs for all. Yet all do not receive abundantly. A favoured few bask in affluence while most suffer deprivation. This is not the fault of nature but of politics. Capitalism inflicts extreme poverty and disparity upon most of the world's inhabitants. Totalitarianism, masquerading as socialism, stifles freedom under its hierarchies of implacable bureaucracy. Fairness can come only when each regains his lost inheritance - the inalienable use of sufficient means to turn his labour into his needs of life and his benevolent ideas into beneficial realities.
