One of the evilest political philosophies extant is “social justice.”
How is “social” justice different from simply, justice?
Using classic left-wing prevarication and wordplay, the concept sneaks in the evil assumption that anything one decides to rationalize as good for society rather than the individual is automatically unjust and criminal.
Case in point, “Keeping all of your property might be just for the individual, but what’s fair for all of ‘society’ is that everyone gives up all or most of their income.”
Sound familiar, New Yorkers?
[…]Laws against economic inequality are like having laws against people being different in ability. To pass a law requiring everyone to have the same amount of money is like passing a law forcing us to pretend everyone is the same, when clearly we are not, and never will be.
Capitalism is what made America great, because it lifted the standard of living (and morale) for everyone.
Given the recent election of socialists in some of our nation’s cities, will we abandon capitalism, truly doing so at our own peril?
