What does justice mean to you?
Content: We create systems and establish principles that are calculated, as best we can, to reach a fair result. In essence, we try to rig the system. To bias it, if you will, towards fairness. We devise checks and counters against the kinds of unfairness we know can creep in. We admonish and train participants as to their duties, what they can and cannot consider. The goal is to create a system where if everyone does their job, it will be easier to achieve a fair result than an unfair one. When we’ve done a good job, creating well-balanced systems staffed with able and relatively honest workers sworn to uphold a clear set of disinterestedly-applied laws, people know what types of grievances justice can redress, and they have a fair idea what their chances are if they appeal to it.

Justice is when action meets a reaction. This mostly applies to negative situations, but not necessarily. Let’s say that someone has done something wrong, in a moral sense at least.
