Sure I am willing but in your comment just before you seemed to disagree with what seems to be that proposition.

Yes that was totally my fault but just to be clear my proposition is competition is the source of inequality in any enterprise

Well a refute is that many intrisic inequalities exist on the basis of pure randomness.

I don't think much of our current inequalities are due to peoples different disposition to the will to compete/power. Can you really out-compete the inequality of randomly allocated ressources for example?

Even if you would remove any possible human trait variable you would still end up with constants out of humanity's control, how likely is it that full equality (which is a human construct) is natural?
