Examples Of Distributive Justice

For this chapter the topic I found most interesting was Distributive justice, or social justice. Distributive justice is the distribution of society’s benefits and burdens fairly, including things such as jobs, income, property, taxes, etc. The reason I found this topic interesting is because, I borderline agree to it and disagree to it. I am all for helping people in need, like the poor and homeless, but in the event that its going to affect others not so much.

For examples if we tax the rich in order to help the poor how is that fair. It is obvious that most rich people are entitled to what they make so why would it be fair to make them pay more in taxes to help other people. If were going to help the poor I think a better answer needs
to be made instead of raising taxes on the wealthy.

Providing equal opportunity to every person is important in building a society. However there is always going to be someone who higher priority then you, because they went to a better school, or they have more money, etc.
