Rick Santorum is simply naive to reduce social inequality to how much each individual contributes to society.  I will mention a few things he forgets.  


As a Christian, he forgets that his Lord condemns those who are rich:


“Blessed are you poor,
    For yours is the kingdom of God."

then,

“But woe to you who are rich,"

Rick Santorum's Lord does not acquiesce to praising the societal structure of Palestine; he condemns social inequality (see Luke 6 for entire scripture).

Another thing Rick Santorum fails to mention is that since the economic meltdown, it is the hardworking laborer who has worked tirelessly in the manufacturing plants that has suffered.  The CEOs and shareholders have not suffered.  The wealthy shareholders of mortgage lending enterprises have not suffered.  Insurance CEOs have not suffered according to what they have contributed to the economic meltdown.  Does Santorum really believe that they have been insulated from the same hardships due to having contributed more than the laborer?

And finally, Santorum fails to mention that one of the root causes to social inequality stretches back to the founding and development of this country.  Native Americans did not contribute any less to productivity in this country when white European settlers claimed rights to the land.  Yet, if one were to observe the conditions of reservations today he or she could not deny the devastating impact of this thievery.  Let's not forget to mention Santorum's memory loss with regards to slavery.  Once again, to praise our inequality and not mention that African Americans have inherited social injustices inflicted upon their ancestors which have led to two and a half centuries of pain, which descendants of white European settlers could never claim, shows that this candidate is so out of touch with reality Republicans ought to be ashamed of having let him get this far.
