Document Summary
If you set up a process or procedure which is fair, then whatever results from that is a theory of justice. Such as setting up a fair process behind the veil of ignorance. Health care is special for other reasons. The fair equality of opportunity is too vague: hard to pick out what interferes with our fair share of the opportunity range, this vagueness allows daniels to get around rawl"s age bias in his presentation in it. For example, if you"re 92, you aren"t trying to get that job, so we don"t really need to give you the fair shot at it because you"re so old. The fair share of the opportunity range allows you to circumvent that, because with it in mind, it"s not in the fair share of the opportunity range for a 92 year old to have that job. Basically remembering the concept that daniel"s veil of ignorance is thinner than.
