Fair can have two meanings, one being justice and the other equal. An equal society is exactly what is sounds like when everyone is equal in everything from rights to money to clothes. A just society is one where everyone gets what they deserve. If you work hard you get money. If you have good habits you will be healthy.
To me an equal society kinds of sounds like socialism but I think that I would prefer to live in a society where everyone is equal. I think however that we live in a more just society than a fair one. So many people are not equal but just as many do not get what they deserve.
What do you think? Do we live in a fair society? Is it more just, equal or something else entirely?
Thanks for the thoughts!
We already have a just society if that's what it means to be fair. We earn money as we work. Also, we can stay healthy if we do good habits. But there is a fact, there are certain things we cannot avoid such as fate. I mean, no matter how hard you try to work, there are still these things that may hinder to build your future such as accidents that might cost you a huge amount of money.
But about that living in our society, the treatment you mean, perhaps. It's obvious that the people were not treated fair and square. Money rules over rules. It can nullify the law. Therefore, the poor people, though some fight for them, it's quite plain to see that they are inferior compared to the rich.
