Genesis And Social Justice II

The insistence upon framing modern society in social justice terms does determine that economic means and economic outcomes are guaranteed as business activity are regulated and curbed by controlling agents from public agencies, a disturbing and unacceptable means of getting for people what they need.

Remember bad means always leads to a bad end.

To use mandatory, confiscatory governmental institutions to deprive the better off of their money (money is power or the monetary tool for accumulating social, financial and public power) to give it to the poor is to deprive all of personal choice, personal accountability by not working and accruing wealth, independence, freedom and self-reliance.

This bad means grows big government and big business, corporatism and crony capitalism. It grows institutions, centralizes totalitarianizing power-wielding and groupism, and none of these side effects and unintended consequences are desired. Instead, they are what society requires much less of over time.

The policies of redistribution, especially as defined and instituted by public employees upon those working and doing business in the private economy grows government, grows poverty, denies people their freedom, their individuality and their ability to amass wealth.

A society of small government and big individuals providing goods and services in a free market economy does grant and deliver to all individuals, doers and individuators, their liberty, their choice and the opportunity to maximize personal talents and wealth accrual.

Where the poor work and operate as do the affluent and successful, they acquire talent development, wealth accumulation and great personal happiness for a life well lived.

Any residual social justice needs can easily be met as byproducts of the lives lived and enjoyed by a free people.
