Wealth inequality is a result of the private ownership of the means of production, and a redistribution of resources is necessary to ensure equitable access and create genuine equality among all members of society. In a truly just society, resources would be collectively owned and managed democratically, ensuring that everyone's needs are met and no one is left behind due to economic disparities.

@Radical_EgoCom The whole point of private ownership is to serve as a mechanism to create wealth inequality.

Calling wealth inequality a result of private ownership glosses over the intent.

A "result" might be an "unforseen" consequence or "side effect" of some aspect of society. Since private ownership is actively enforced, it cannot be accidental.

You are right, wealth inequality is not merely an unintended consequence but is a deliberate outcome of the #capitalist system due to private ownership being actively enforced by those in positions of power to consolidate wealth and privilege, at the expense of the majority.
