It would never work... and the best way to quash the attempt is to enact it serially.

Determine what an "equal" share is... and start by reducing the income (and holdings) of the legislators, judges, and executives of our government to those levels.

Thorne sums it up... including the intent of the founding fathers (who were so bloody rich, they could foment and support a revolution.)

No, equality does not mean that you can have everything that I've worked hard to acquire. It only means that you can have the same opportunity to work just as hard to acquire your own.
btw... another aspect to consider. Removing wealth eliminates the potential to organize dissent. It's a totalitarian truism.
