Socrates’ position that justice is an important good is incorrect. For the health of a Republic ‘Injustice, if it is on a large enough scale, is stronger, freer, and more masterly than justice’. In the course of arguing for this conclusion, Thrasymachus makes three central claims about justice.
Justice is nothing but the advantage of the stronger.
Justice is obedience to laws.
Justice is nothing but the advantage of another.
Rather like Stalin’s chicken, says Thrasymachus, a disarmed populace will be that much more loyal to the Republic. The rich will fear the poor. Old men will fear the young. The individual will fear the group. All will fear all, and thus look to the Republic for protection and salvation.
This is a key reason to hate the state. The ethical egoist sees clearly that society’s justice is only the good of the other and thus incompatible with the pursuit of one’s own self-interest.
The false virtues of altruism shift the balance of power to the strongest in animal terms, and steal the power of the value creators to serve the ends of the state.
