He first suggests a new way to learn about principles of justice—the original position. The original position asks us to imagine that a group of people will get to decide the principles of justice.

That rabbit announces that Lennie isn’t fit to lick the boots of a rabbit‚ but that the bunny comes from Lennie’s own mind suggests that he
