You think it's subjective to say that, all other things being equal, all individuals "deserve" the same opportunities and considerations in life???

[/ QUOTE ] Yes. But it doesn't really matter, since what we were discussing whether people did or did not "deserve" was property, not concepts like "opportunity" and "consideration."

Frankly, I don't see how anyone can answer "yes" to that question. If you decided to buy a lottery ticket, do you think it's a subjective decision to give everyone who buys one lottery ticket the same chance to win? It wouldn't make any difference to you if say, 70% of everyone else who bought a ticket had twice as high a chance to win, maybe because they live in a different county?

Obviously opportunity directly relates to money and property, which obviously is related to standard of living/quality of life.
