Not quite. The correct answer is marked in green.

Correct answer to question 8: Everyone should have the same amount of money.

Explanation

The Basic Law guarantees freedom, dignity and equality before the law, but not equality of wealth. A duty to share income equally would conflict with the freedom to choose a profession (Art. 12) and the right to property (Art. 14).
