Maybe I do think that it is better to make everyone a little bit worse off materially to make the distribution more equal.

Maybe some policies fail at helping the poor and at making people more equal.

I can imagine a policy done in the name of the poor which results at everyone being poorer... except for the people who organized the redistribution... you know, the powerful good guys.
