This is not the same thing. A lot of research has shown that 2 things destroy societies: (1) Chaos and lack of law enforcement, And (2) Excessive inequity. Having clear bad laws and enforcing is better than not having any law enforcement or nepotism. Obviously it is best to to have good laws, but any order is better than chaos. Similarly, a society will rip itself apart if some parts are too far behind other parts. You can't have a well functioning car by having a Ferrari engine, an 18 wheeler tires, a pick up cab, and a Toyota seat. But this is what some people are advocating for. Just like the part about bad laws being better than no laws and good laws being better than bad ones, it is best if all parts are optimally aligned. But barring that, any system that prevents some inequity and extreme inequality is better than none at all.
