Justice

Mill certainly has a lot to say about Justice. After discussing what justice means to different people he seems to come to the conclusion that justice is an individual response to when a person feels their rights have been violated. I may be getting this wrong but I think the point Mill is making is that justice can't be part of utilitarianism because it is so individual and utilitarianism is about finding a universal ethical system. As usual I look forward to seeing what it's all about in class.
