Will there be more justice with less humans? Or I put it the other way around. Less humans, less injustice. The latter one sounds more logical.
What if people who would raise their kids properly in order to become responsible citizens stop having kids. But people who abuse their children will not stop to procreate. Would the equation less humans, less injustice still fit?
I am not sure. I don't want that this post gets too political. But I think rich people should give more money to the poor. There should be less economical inequality.
Disabled people should get more support. Free health care and liberal assisted suicide laws should be implemented worldwide. Free education and good therapy options for ill people.
Now a more difficult question for me. Should people who destroy lives be punished harder? Would the death sentence lead to more or less injustice? I think this is quite subjective. I am against the death sentence. There is evidence that many innocent people got killed. But this is only one reason.
Should drug abuse be illegal?
Is justice something that can only be reached if humans reach moral progress? Are we heading in the right direction? Can there be justice in this world? Should we give tit for tat? I mean many people abused me and ruined me. And most of them got away with it with no punishment at all. I once wanted make a thread about whether one can or should forgive them. But this is an idea for another thread.
Moreover there is the question what is the definition for justice. Do our laws and courts really produce justice? Is full justice just a naive dream? But I think there can be real differences. Life is often not fair. But sometimes it is. And sometimes the right people get punished. Sadly not that often.
Maybe the life of sentient being is always injust? Due to the fact we are all not without flaws.
Maybe the notion of justice is so important for humans as a concept so that they developed faith in a just afterlife. Without a doubt this notion can be comforting but I don't believe in it.
