"The only reason to be alive and human is to make progress. Everything else is just a waste of time."

Biology says that the only reason to be alive is to transmit our DNA forward.

Religion says the reason is to serve god.

If your god is progress(what ever that means) then you must be religious.

"If everyone is wealthy then there is no problem distinguishing between wealthy and poor which is my entire point."

Poorly expressed but I think you mean "If everyone is wealthy then there is no reason to distinguish between wealthy and poor". Something else would turn up to measure differences between people.
