“…Daniels for his part located the support of health care with the support of fair equality of opportunity (Daniels, 1981). Others, however, recognizing the major moral, financial, and policy difficulties involved in attempting to ensure equality in access to health care or the realization of equality of opportunity through health care, placed health care within the difference principle, so that inequalities in access to health care would be morally acceptable if they redounded to the benefit of the least-well-off class (Stern, 1983). In the cases of regarding health care as integral to liberty as well as integral to the pursuit of fair equality of opportunity, the view taken was that, just as social-democratic states should not tolerate inequalities in basic civil liberties or in fair equality of opportunity, equality in the provision of health care would need to be achieved.…”
