"Distributive Justice: Fair Sharing Based on Merit Justice is about fairness, but what does that really mean? Many people believe justice means equality, but that’s not always the case. Justice is about fair balance, not just equality. It ensures that people receive what they truly deserve, based on their contributions. If two people differ in merit, treating them the same may actually be unfair. Problems arise when: • Equals are treated unequally. • Unequals are treated the same. This is where distributive justice comes in. It ensures that rewards are given fairly based on what people contribute. In justice, fairness is about balance. People get rewards based on what they’ve contributed. This is called geometrical proportion. It means the ratio of people matches the ratio of what they receive." -The Nichomachean Ethics - For Everyone, Aristotle, Kindle Edition, pg. 80

“The Importance of Balance in Social Life Friendliness, truthfulness, and humor are vital traits in how we connect with others. • Friendliness is about being kind but not fake. • Truthfulness is about being honest but not boastful. • A good sense of humor makes life fun, but it should never be used to hurt others.” -The Nichomachean Ethics - For Everyone, Aristotle, Kindle Edition, pg. 75

“Universal Justice: Following the Law and Doing What’s Right A just person follows the law. They do this not just to obey but because laws bring order. This order helps people live together in peace. Good laws help shape citizens. They encourage virtues such as courage, honesty, and kindness.” -The Nichomachean Ethics - For Everyone, Aristotle, Kindle Edition, pg. 75
