all we need is a mechanism of equal distribution/

Bitcoin is money. Money is something you receive for goods or services. Why would one give for free the hard-earned money? Just because that money is called Bitcoin?!

It is the old idea that in a communist world everything would be wonderful, when the pure reality is that if all the wealth of the world were confiscated and distributed equally, the next day there would be rich and poor again, because some would save and invest and others would spend it all immediately on whores and drugs (to give extreme examples).

The only way to ensure "equality" would be, the day after, to confiscate again those who save and invest to give it to those who have spent it on whores and drugs.

And we would all live happily ever after.
Exactly, each individual in the world has different ways on handling their money that's why even the money in the world will be distributed equally, the next day or the next few weeks there will be a difference between social status once again. There will be those people who would choose not to work to earn more or choose to work to assure the security of their future. There will be people who will put their greed first and take advantage of other people's stupidity and ignorance. The world is too vast and complex, no matter how hard we try to make everything appear equal, it's just too impossible.
