For this weekly check-in, read the eighth chapter, "Justice" on pp. 76-86 in your book What Does It All Mean by Thomas Nagel. While discussing issues of justice both nationally and globally, Nagel says:
Most disturbing of all are the enormous inequalities in wealth, health, education, and development between rich and poor countries. Most people in the world have no chance of ever being as well off economically as the poorest people in Europe, Japan, or the United States. These large differences in good and bad luck certainly seem unfair; but what, if anything, should be done about them?

Next, answer Nagels question: What, if anything, should be done about these large differences in good and bad luck?
