Utopia or Dystopia - that depends on your point of view. In the future, all things are equal. Equal rights, equal pay, equal responsibility and equal punishment. Gender, intelligence, nationality and everything else that distinguishes one person from another are not considered in any decision making. Even finances are structured to retain equality. No rich, no poor and no middle class. Everyone is viewed and treated as the same.
Not everyone believes that equality is the same as right. Anyone born with or who develops a physical or mental malady that prevents them from being equal are unable to function in an equal society. Some believe that though unequal, these people should still have an equal chance. A belief that stands against what the governments of the world proclaim.
