Justice is the idea that people are treated equally, impartially, and fairly under a set of standards. If someone breaks the rules justice is them getting the same punishment anyone else would get, concerns about externalities don’t come into it.

Is everyone getting hurt ideal? No. But that’s a different question than is it justice.

IMO this is what happened during 2008. The government tried to minimize harm at the expense of justice, and people are angry because they don’t realize how bad it could have been.
