After reading the case, “Choosing Lots”, the best resolution in this situation would be Lots A because each person deserves equal rights just like the wealthy people do. Lots A is basically where poor and immigrants lives without transportation. Lots A and Lots B can buy their own public transportation since they basically live in a “wealthy” neighborhood. They don’t need the government agencies to buy a public transportation for them. The government agencies needs to be thinking about the lower class not the upper class. The upper class can buy and have what they want not the lower class. The lower class has to either walk to work, work more than two jobs to support their families, and maintain good health while the middle and upper class has their “basic needs” handed to them, pretty much.
If I had to choose between one of the theories between principle of equal liberty and difference principle, it would be principle of equal liberty. It would be principle of equal liberty because everyone should be treated equally even if they are more poorer than others. Poor people

Lots A has much less such as a public bus and other stuff. A public to transport poorer people would be great in Lots A than other Lots. The government agencies should think twice about buying from either Lot B and C. Thinking more about the cons about each Lots. Lots A, has much more poorer people including immigrants who needs to be transported to point A to point B and without that that, they would become even more poorer. Lots B is a middle class and close to upper class like Lots C, so why should they be given a public transportation there. Lots C is definitely a no because they are much more wealthier than Lots A and B put together even though they are going to court about
This gives the middle and lower class better access to benefits that are easily accessible to the wealthy such as money, health care that is not covered by the government, etc.. Although egalitarians believe in social and political equality in an ideal society, none have ever proposed that there should be absolutely no difference in income or wealth of the members of this society. In the same way liberals’ are not
However, this solution raises the question: how will the government fund the free buses and trains? In her novel, Ehrenreich mentions that “the poor people do not stand a chance” against the rich as the wealthy are numerous due to their high “executive salaries”

While it is reasonable to infer that this inequality gap has widened due to globalization or technological changes making the American population less competitive, we’re missing the real issue that with this gap being so wide as it currently is, there is not positive change being made. To add on, economic inequality can typically affect political choice making due to stances in life. In article “Inequalities of Income and Inequalities of Longevity”, by Eric Neumayer, he specifies that “poor people are less likely to vote and have little influence on political decisions, whereas the very rich can exercise a strong influence via lobbying and donations.” This highly creates political incentives that would benefit the rich rather than the poor in making society a convenience for the rich at the expense of the poor. For example, Neumayer list that low income families or individuals have multiple consequences with health due to the reason that they can’t afford the best hospitality a wealthy person would be able to afford.
In addition, on the other hand, Respondent 's bank accounts contain several hundred thousands of dollars, which are marital assets and are subject to equitable distribution; while Petitioner never touched those
John Locke’s Second Treatise of Government is most known for his justification of private property, but there are many other theories, though not as popular, that are equally as important. One of these is his justification of inequality, which will be covered in this essay. Locke says that until the invention of money, there was no point to accumulate more property, or wealth, than one could use because it would spoil. That changed after the introduction of money because money does not spoil, which allows people to accumulate more than they need. Locke argues that since men agreed to use money as a way to fairly possess more than they could use, they also agreed to the consequence of inequality.
In the article, “Created Equal” by Milton and Rose Friedman, the authors argue that equality of outcome puts the people’s liberty in jeopardy. In this article the Friedmans discuss equality of outcome and how it forces people who have certain benefits in their society but are forced to end up in the same place as everyone else, regardless of hard work or ability. To the Friedmans this is a clear contradiction of liberty and should not be allowed to become a reality. The Friedmans believe that equality and liberty are the two concepts that every individual should try to achieve in a society.
We tolerate economic inequality more than political inequality. Though people argue that the rich should distribute their wealth to everyone. But, if I were to be poor and lazy, I would rely on the income from the rich. I wouldn't want go to work. So, people would continue to rely on the rich rather than trying to reach the ‘American Dream’ in a way.
The problem with the widened wealth gap is that the inequality may harm the quality. Meaning that those in the higher classes see it as you can use the money with no restrictions. However, economist believe that the “relationship between inequality and economic freedom, with the possibility that policies that are meant to reduce inequality will reduce economic freedom, which will then only make inequality worse.”
The upper class get better food and products than the working class that is actually helping the country grow. The upper class controls what is given to the lower class and even cuts down on what or how much the lower classes get, “It appeared that
Choosing Participants Tester 1: Jacob Peterson My first usability tester was Jacob Peterson, studying Interpersonal Communication. Jacob is a 19-year-old male; a sophomore at Northwest. Jacob is someone that lives off-campus and does not eat very many meals on campus, so he can watch what he eats. In addition to that, he works out about three times a week with his friends playing games and is involved in intramural basketball at the recreation center.
The individuals classed in the higher strata of society are the ones who are better treated, and therefore, are the ones who get the most benefits from society. It is not the individuals’ fault that society is formed this way. All societies are formed in a way that some percentage of the population is ranked in the higher pay range as well as some portion is ranked of the bottom pay range of the scale. There is no way that the social stratification of a society could be present because of the individuals themselves. There will always be a percentage of homelessness in a society and that is due to the larger societal forces rather than being the individual’s
It is just not about the rich getting richer and the poor getting more poor, but it’s about all as a whole being equal.
Socialism strives to bridge the gap between the upper class and the lower class of citizens; however,
For sure class differentiation is already happening, but this would take drastic proportions. It is a question that strikes the heart of justice. From the above, it is morally and ethically to set boundaries and limitations. If there were no limitations the rich and less wealthy could simply buy justice. For example.
