“Prosperity or egalitarianism – you have to choose. I favor freedom – you never achieve real equality anyway, you simply sacrifice prosperity for an illusion.”

We, Latin American freedom fighters, are very proud of Mario Vargas Llosa. His wise words show why.

it is an awesome quote i am going to use it in my report/essay it is amazing it shows the importance and opinions of vote

What is "egalitarianism" but an illusion — denying natural law (inclusive of fiscal law and the individual sovereignty, inalienable rights and the liberty thereof) and noble man's talents. Prosperity derives from all are equal before the law — NOT, a forced limitation on materialism.

You can only prosper when all are  equally respected, regarded, and all are given the same fair opportunities. Freedom to maime and kill is mentally ill freedom, and that's why we don't have equality which is a reasonable expectation. Mentally healthy have respect for life.
