The difference between just and unjust government intervention is simple.
If your house catches fire and the fire department comes when called, puts out the fire, and then leaves, that's justice. If your house catches fire and the fire department comes when called, puts out the fire, and then claims ownership of your house, that's injustice.
There are times when even the most ardent believer in markets relies on government intervention; even times when it is his right to expect it.
