The author concludes a governmentβs social policies canβt be determined using only general principles of justice. Why not? Because defending any policyβsuch as provisions for the elderlyβon the grounds of social justice eventually requires invoking arbitrary choices or circumstances specific to that policy.
The author assumes thereβs no other policy, besides those mentioned, that can be determined by general principle without relying on arbitrary choices or specific circumstances. In addition, he assumes thereβs no general principle of justice thatβs capable of fully determining a policy about provisions for the elderly.
