Breddy gud talk, as per the usual for Dr. Brook speaking on equality. I think his British audience was rather shocked by his suggestion that things be voluntary rather than mandated, it was kind of amusing to hear some of the questions asked. That one guy asking the question about morality got shut down pretty quick but refused to accept the answer given; seems he touched on something Brook gets a lot because Brook seemed pretty miffed. I suppose he's used to it.
And if you watched it you'd know he's arguing for meritocracy, not aristocracy - he even says he dislikes the idea of rich parents giving their children money for nothing because it doesn't teach them anything, but that he wouldn't stop them because it's not his right to tell them what to do with their own resources.
Equality in all things means the destruction of meritocracy, is what his point boils down to, and that meritocracy benefits us all by having specialists provide things to us that they do better than others; we in turn can be better at some things, and therefore benefit others in that regard. Penalizing others for being ahead of the curve in some way is silly.
