Theory of redistribution of advantage

Reference no: EM133299836

Question: John Rawls, in his famous work A Theory of Justice, argued that we have a moral duty to those less fortunate than we. He furthermore argued that a rational, fair system would always lead to the redistribution of advantage to those who have less than we.

Assuming Rawls theory of redistribution of advantage would affect you, so that you had to give up money, time or opportunity to support it, would you? Please support your argument with a specific example of a redistribution that is either fair or unfair.
