>it suggested (at least to me) very unnatural about how incomes were being allocated

I feel like the word "unnatural" is doing a lot of work here... can you explain what you mean? Do you believe economies "naturally" generate equal income distributions?

At first glace it's as natural as any economic phenomenon: it emerges from the uncoordinated actions of many different individuals.

My sense is that you actually meant "unfair" or "undesirable" or "evil", but it seems worth clarifying.
