The Rich Benefit the Most from Socialism

I doubt you can.

Freedom does not mean equality. Freedom simply means that no one shall violate the non aggression principle, no matter who you are.

Freedom has nothing to do with making circumstances equal, it is to make morality equal. If I violently deface anyone beautiful to make things more equal for less attractive people, I have just replaced genetic unfairness with the initiation of violence, something far worse.
The only freedom, is freedom from illusion.
