What is a fair society?

[Rozcobs]

I think it is fair if you look on what's going on the society. There's equal in justice, equal in acquiring goods and freedom. But don't you think there is something else hidden agenda in the society? There is. We just don't know who's who: running the mainstream of this big group to monopolize services, goods and even media. Something is there to benefit only a few. But the masses have a little chance to reaching it. If there's a crime police would take care, imprisoned when proven. To some are excused due to connections. So, very specific definition when it comes to fair society topics.

Fair can have two meanings, one being justice and the other equal. An equal society is exactly what is sounds like when everyone is equal in everything from rights to money to clothes. A just society is one where everyone gets what they deserve. If you work hard you get money. If you have good habits you will be healthy.

To me an equal society kinds of sounds like socialism but I think that I would prefer to live in a society where everyone is equal. I think however that we live in a more just society than a fair one. So many people are not equal but just as many do not get what they deserve.

What do you think? Do we live in a fair society? Is it more just, equal or something else entirely?

Thanks for the thoughts!

There's never a fair society. People always want to have more than others. There are fair people who treat others without any thoughts of self interest but there are far more that will do anything to take advantage of others.

fair society is when everyone does on the merits

We already have a just society if that's what it means to be fair. We earn money as we work. Also, we can stay healthy if we do good habits. But there is a fact, there are certain things we cannot avoid such as fate. I mean, no matter how hard you try to work, there are still these things that may hinder to build your future such as accidents that might cost you a huge amount of money.

But about that living in our society, the treatment you mean, perhaps. It's obvious that the people were not treated fair and square. Money rules over rules. It can nullify the law. Therefore, the poor people, though some fight for them, it's quite plain to see that they are inferior compared to the rich.

There's no equal society. People are so different that it's impossible to bring them all to the same level.
If you believe it's possible, you're a dreamer. Can you make an idiot smart? No! So to bring people into equal status you'd have to make the smart ones dumber or at least make them act like it. It's only one example of why the society will never be equal or it will be forced at the expense of exceptional units.

it is impossible to make everyone equal, because we are all different from the beginning...for me, a just society, this is when everyone in theirs place and with pleasure fulfills theirs duties, but this also can't be...because we won't find happy janitor or garbage collector, although any civilized city wouldn't have lived a day without their's work

For me a fair society is simply a society where each person has what he deserves in every field.

[automail]

For me there is no fair society. Everyone has their own capability and its all about maximizing our potentials. Having a fair society is unfair for those who were spending a lot of time doing things to perfect their craft. Some are just lucky to be born in a rich family and some are just less fortunate to be born in a poor family. That's how life is, balance is needed and it is impossible that everyone is equal in the society. The only time that everybody is equal was in the eyes of GOD. By the ways, lazy people always wants fair society because they don't want to make an effort to make their lives better.

Even the world itself is not fair so how can we expect to have a fair society. Children wouldn't be born in Sudan and then starve to death if the world was indeed very fair. Even though that's the case the USA or China has the ability to end Hunger globally but they don't simply care because its not their people who are starving.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this, in my opinion, fairness and equality is synonymous. We are living a fair life-- every body gets the pay for the work rendered. But there are times society is not fair at all. Simply because some takes advantage of other peoples weakness and social status. Government funds are not distributed based on the need of a state. Wealthy states are given much fund, whereas poor states get low allocations. Not fair.

A fair society is being a good example as an individual to influence other, then influence became a thing, as well as being a fair society.

[aimey]

A fair society is a society which respect all people regardless of race and social condition.

Altogether society is not fair and there are countless examples of this throughout society. However in 2017 we do live in the fairest of times especially if you look backwards. Not saying this is ideal but we have made many strides and I think in the next 50 years or so we will continue doing so until eventually equality is all but eliminated from Earth.

There is no such thing as a fair society as 'fair' means different things to people, even if this deviations get diminished with education powerful people will push to the side they believe is the 'best'.

[mimipipi]

Fair in society is by giving the same portion in working and also getting the same results in obtaining rights and obligations as a citizen,because there will be a great social dynamics in the  distribution of rights and obligations if not based on justice.In the world of justice may I think that is very disturbing justice is the Contempt of Court who deliberately done the lawyers in playing the case with the judge to be free the clients from the actual legal bondage.

Nothing is fair. May it be in life or in the society. Though as for my opinion, it is fair if everyone was given equal rights and capability as they are part of the society.

[equoboy]

Fair society is is equality of all human beings by not looking on the standard of living and status in life, also by not judging each other. But sad to say we dont have that kind of society.

[Ravenangel]

a fair society....one that can benefit each other in one way or another...

[Anjazvatoni4]

I live in various villages.
The various qualities that I meet, in fact all the society is fair.
because economic factors that change the nature of justice must be closed.

[Mainman08]

A fair society for me is everybody are equal. The richer will treat the poor equally. There is no rich or poor in of giving justice to everyone. But i think there will never be a fair society in any place right now.
