HELL NO we are not all equal. Anyone who knows more than about 2 people has to realize this; if they say otherwise they're in denial. There are plenty of talentless, ugly, stupid, unmotivated, unhappy people, and there are also a lot of the exact opposite. Some people are just plain better than others. Get over it. That's why there are brilliant scientists, inventors, and business owners, and there are also people who work at McDonalds (if they work at all) for their whole life.
I do, however, agree that everybody is to be treated equally under the law. It's not the government's role to determine if someone is more worthy than another person. Laws must be based on objective standards and providing equal treatment to all is the only way this is possible.
