Captions available
The idea
Auditing a distribution: testing one economic outcome against Rawlsian and Nozickian standards, and locating exactly where they part.
In practice
The case: a founder's heir inherits a fortune amassed lawfully; median workers' wages have stagnated.
Where people slip
Run both audits before choosing sides—each theory is strongest on the case the other skips.
