28. That is where free markets come into play
There doesn't have to be a big philosophical value judgment on this.

Just make sure there are the proper safety nets, social programs, and education so that everyone has the same opportunity to be successful. If people can't work for whatever reason, make sure they have a minimum standard of living by the government. This system isn't perfect, but I think it accomplishes the goal.
