     We  cannot  be  invulnerable so long as  we  tolerate
distributive-injustice   at  the  expense  of   our   most
vulnerable neighbors --- because:

     Their and our circumstances may reverse and there may
fall  into their hands the tools by which to  get  revenge
for  the  distributive injustices which we  tolerated  ---
because   those   distributive  injustices  were  to   our
advantage; and their dis-advantage.

     We  undermine  the logic of future  "justice"  if  we
tolerate  distributive-injustice today ---  because  today
such injustice is to our advantage;  and to other people's
disadvantage.

     We  undermine the logic of future justice if today we
make and affix labels which identify vulnerable people  as
isolated evil people --- and thereby create enduring evil-
relationships between such isolated individual people  and
ourselves.    We  will  have taught them  to  imitate  our
injustice used as a means to get even and ahead in  unfair
ways.

     So  long  as  some  vulnerable  people  can  honestly
recognize themselves as victims of  distributive-injustice
---   we cannot long be invulnerable to reversals  in  our
circumstances  of relative advantage over theme because of
concentrations of power to our current advantage.
