A group of strangers have gathered to design a just society. To ensure none of them rig the system, they’ve been placed under a veil of ignorance. Under this veil, they’re blind to information about age, sex, profession, wealth, religion, and so on. Can they build a fair society where everyone has the resources they need? Joseph Lacey details John Rawls' classic thought experiment.
Lesson by Joseph Lacey, directed by Eoin Duffy.

I definitely agree on a limit of campaign spending and donations. I also think there should not be a minimum wage but a maximum wage. That maximum wage being % based on the wages of all employees within the company. If a CEO wants themselves and upper management to earn more, than all their employees have to earn more. It would encourage a stronger work environment, decrease stress, and promote innovation.
Politicians would not be able to earn more than the average wage of all the people they govern. Encouraging them to make policies that benefit their citizens health, education, capabilities, etc in order to be higher wage earners. This would also make it more likely that people that want to help others would be politicans rather than the power and money hungry folks.

I had to watch it twice. Second time just to focus on the audio.
The graphics are simply phenomenal!

Apart from the quality content, we often praise the relentless creativity of TEDed's illustrations, but let's all appreciate for a moment how well thought is the sound design of these videos! The attention for such details shows how the creators are dedicated to their work! Thank you, TEDed Team, for your awesome work!🙌

It’s artistic in one sense and philosophical in another!

I’m waiting on the ‘how to build a dystopia’ sequel

Building from the ground up is easy but changing existing structures is hard. People don't want to be told that they're not special, and the 10 years they spent growing 1 million dollars to 2 million dollars wasn't hard and most people could do it if they started with 1 million dollars and it wasn't hard work that got them there.

I like the unique artstyle. I admire the brilliance it takes to give those shapes the meanings they have

Free education or at least good quality and cheaper education along with cheaper medical care would be my version of Utopia in this world. I know places in the west have it but its not everywhere. Either the quality of education and health care is sub par or they're expensive.

cool shapes

That utopia relies on heavy state control while also being a democracy while also still being capitalist, basically it believes that a utopia can be done today without changing anything of our material conditions and hoping it works by ideas alone and the famously "infinite benevolence of our rulers" this is truly just a thought experiment, and a very unimaginative one at that.

Great video, and the animation is also remarkable

the vision for a just society under the veil of ignorance is a compelling reminder of the importance of fairness in our foundational structures. It challenges us to consider how policies might be shaped if we prioritized the well-being of the least advantaged from the start. 👍

This in combination with my world history class made me think of something interesting. We might be as far from the peak of idealogical progress as we are from the peak of scientific proogress

2:40 so ultimately there are still offices and the majority is still the rule even if it's wrong. That's how your utopia ends.
