Denise asked:

What is a just distribution of resources, such as wealth, education, welfare and opportunities?

===========

I don't think there is such a thing as a just distribution of resources. You can't have equal distribution
because people aren't equal to begin with and they differ in capacities. We can't measure what extra
help every individual might need. Surely you don't think that every individual in a community can be
assessed for needs at particular intervals?

Some people don't care for wealth and opportunities, others do. It's the same with education. It is the
general view that people ought to care about education, wealth and opportunities. But not everyone
does. But what is it with "welfare"? If there were some kind of equality in the distribution of wealth and
opportunities, why should need welfare?

You might want to compare John Rawls (Justice as Fairness) who believes in the possibility of
distributive justice and Robert Nozick (Anarchy, State and Utopia) who upholds the rights of
individuals against interference from the state.
