Who is going to want to go to school for 8 years to become a doctor when they will get paid the same amount if they are mail deliverers. This will create laziness because how much will each person be entitled to of the cooperative dividend, obviously the same amount for everyone regardless of how much work one person. Lets say a bridge is to be built by 20 people by mutual cooperation and everyone has to work equal amount of hours but the problem is that person A, B, C and D are not working as hard as the rest of the people.

So Vimintiz talks about an equality of condition between two people going into a certain negotiation, so an equal amount of distribution will come out from the final cooperative dividend.
