Radio: Waht is Social Justice?

David John Marotta was featured on radio 1070 WINA’s Schilling Show on September 18, 2012 discussing the phrase “social justice” and how this term is largely undefined, though it may sound nice on the surface.

Is social justice
an innocent expression of good will towards the less fortunate
-OR-
an atrocious principle that rewards should be determined by political power?

Put another way,
Is the transfer of material benefits to those less fortunate–a matter of humanity and human choice
-OR-
a matter of justice and therefore entitled to coercion through the use of force by the state?
