Well technically speaking, as aristotle stated, and hayek confirmed, justice is unknowable (an ideal, not a real). Justice can occur in a particular (court case). But we then try to scale it as a dishonest pretention for ‘fairness’. And it can’t scale.

The proper term for fairness is not equality, or equity, but proportionality (meritocracy). What we use instead of justice, fairness, equity, or equality is ‘pervasive reciprocity within the limits of proportionality’. That means do everything as morally as possible, but if morality starts causing people to ‘defect’ because they’re left behind or outcast, then we must work to restore proportionality.,

Why? everyone pays the ‘tax’ of not doing evil for participation in the reciprocal markets. What if I don’t do evil but I still can’t participate? Well that’s a market failure. Now the left wants to do evil. That said, is it true that we have violated proportionality? Of course it is. That’s why we have people not benefitting from our current state of development. The difference is, some of us know why that’s happening (rent seeking, corruption, free riding, labor arbitrage, investment arbitrage). And we (or at least I) know how to fix that problem to restore proportionality without violating reciprocity, but by restoring reciprocity.

Only onece we’ve restord reciprocity (elminated all the bads) will we know if there remains a violate of proportionality. And ingeneral, in anglo civilization, in germanic civilization, we strive to produce commons to reduces costs in perpetuity for all, instead of engaging in redistribution in the moment that doesn’t.

The piont is that we try to restore responsibliilty, As long as people are responsible (don’t do bads, and the left does bads), then we must provide a means of restoring proportionality. And there is no metric for it. We can only observe it in human behavoir. And then determine whether it’s because of a violation of proportionality, or it’s another leftist attempt at a crime.
