Moral Wealth World

Libertarians use an example to refute the theses that claim that the rich do not deserve their fortunes. After all, this process of riches reaching the caretaker is entirely subject to mutual agreement. To watch the game of basketball you must be a crazy Stalinian to defend the idea that you should not have a quarterly payout. Why so? Look at Mark Zuckerberg. Nobody has to use Facebook. People are rich because they love the product that he reveals. Obviously, wealth is the product of his own labor and nobody should deprive it of it. People on the right-hand line often argue for richness in this respect. It is not unfair to have this wealth because I won it.

However, there is a separate question that this advocate has missed: regardless of whether you have won or not, how much of a moral reserve are you allowed to retain? The problem of receiving and retaining is different. In parallel: if I had a EpiPen vaccine and encountered a child with severe allergic reactions, the question whether I should vaccinate the child and whether I took it legally is different. It is important to be clear about these distinctions because the answers we give to the questions about the systems may be different from the answers we give to the questions about individual behavior.
