quote icon The Social Good Theory of Justice justifies the use of coercive force on the part of the government based on the notion of utility. This means statistically serving the greatest good for the greatest number irrespective to the cost to any one particular individual. That is, the individual can be and often must be sacrificed to the greater good of the collective. Many horrible things can be and have been done to individuals in the name of the "so called" greater good of society.
