Abstract
Liberal egalitarian theories of justice argue that inequalities arising

from non-responsibility factors should be eliminated, but that inequalities

arising from responsibility factors should be accepted. The paper

discusses how the fairness argument for redistribution within a liberal

egalitarian framework is a¤ected by a relocation of the cut between

responsibility and non-responsibility factors. The paper also discusses

the claim that equalization of some non-responsibility factors will reduce

the ideal level of redistribution.
