Anarcho-capitalism is prepared to accept vast differences in income and wealth, as long as they're the outcome of truly free competition. Vanguardists accept secretive and inegalitarian methods in the short- term as essential to achieving long-term egalitarian goals, though that short-term has a way of extending itself into decades should they actually achieve state power.
