Life is not fair. That is one of the oldest truths in the world, though it has worn many names-luck, fate, destiny, and chance.

Over the last two centuries, societies have expanded the boundaries of fairness by abolishing slavery, extending rights to women, creating safety nets for the poor, and recognizing education and health as universal needs. The message is clear: while unfairness cannot be completely eliminated, it can at least be narrowed, softened, and made less damning in its effects.
