In baseball, fairness is paramount—whether you are at bat or in the outfield, the rules don't change based on your position. This sense of impartiality mirrors Rawls's idea that just principles should be decided without regard to one's personal circumstances [...] Just as a baseball game begins with both teams having an equal opportunity to win, Rawls argued that society should be structured to ensure that everyone, regardless of their circumstances at birth, has an equal opportunity to succeed. This ties into his idea that inequalities are only justifiable if they improve the situation of the least advantaged, similar to how sports teams adjust strategies to ensure fairness and maximize their chances of success.
Did you hear that? The good original sinner believed that the rules should universally apply to everyone, until the person made of the wrong kind of stuff starts getting ahead. Then they should be jiggled with using corny cheesy skiffy until the people made of the right kind of stuff start winning. Stay together! There's no "I" in team! No illegitimate left behind!
