This is a declaration, not an argument. There's no rule that says the relationship between management and workers has to be symmetrical, and if there were such a rule, then workers should demand access to all of the books and get to sit in on all of the meetings.
Egalitarian is the parent's argument, not mine, all I did was clarify the definition -- which is, as you so adroitly pointed out, a statement. I also did not refer to the relationship between workers and management but to both's respective relationship to the government, which is not egalitarian if not symmetrical.
