In a developed democracy like the US there are several forms of equality but also inequality.

Equality:

Law: Even though this can be affected by other social factors, under the law all citizens are the same.

Politics: In politics, all citizens hold the same amount of power to choose a leader, or hold positions in the state.

Speech: In the US all citizens have equal rights to communicate their thoughts in the best way they prefer.

Inequality:

Income: There can be a huge difference in the income of a household, and throughout the US it is not distributed fairly.

Gender: It has been demostrated in several studies that the social and economical opportunities are not equal for man and woman.

Race: Even though there have been great advances with this problem in the last century there is still a reality in which the conditions can differ because of the race a citizen has.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
