Welfare Systems

Welfare systems are government programs designed to support individuals and families in need, aiming to promote social and economic well-being. They include financial aid, healthcare, education, and housing assistance. In the context of distributive justice, welfare systems seek to address inequalities by redistributing resources to ensure a fairer distribution of wealth and opportunities. The underlying principle is that everyone should have access to basic necessities, fostering a more equitable society. These programs reflect societal values about responsibility, solidarity, and the belief that helping those in need contributes to the overall health of the community.
