"The political problem of mankind is to combine three things: economic efficiency, social justice, and individual liberty.

If equality is your only value, and efficiency and liberty don't count, you're a communist.

If efficiency is your only value, and liberty and equality don't count, you're a fascist.

If liberty is your only value, and efficiency and equality don't count, you're a libertarian."

- J. M. Keynes

I think for most people all three count, although to different extents. I'd probably put liberty first, and maybe put equality last (at lest in terms of equal wealth, equal income, and equal results, but not in terms of equality under the law).
