In economic life, everyone can find his living. But only maybe. Whether he succeeds depends on himself, on his gifts, and on the whole machinery of the economy.

The court only removes violations. Whoever suffers a theft gets his right.

What is still missing?

Two things. First, chance events that threaten person and property should, if possible, not happen at all. Security should stay undisturbed. Second, the living and the welfare of each individual should be secure. Particular welfare should count as a right and become real.

Summary: The court removes violations. But real right includes more: safety from chance events and care for the welfare of each individual. This section deals with that.

§ 533. The administration of justice of itself excludes what belongs only to particularity in actions and interests, and leaves to contingency both the occurrence of crimes and regard for welfare. In civil society the satisfaction of need — and indeed at the same time that of the human being — in a fixed general manner, that is, the securing of this satisfaction, is the end. But in the mechanism of the necessity of society, the contingency of this satisfaction is present in the most manifold ways, both with regard to the changeability of needs themselves, in which opinion and subjective arbitrariness have a great share, and through localities, the connections of one people with others, through errors and deceptions which can be introduced into individual parts of the whole machinery of wheels and are capable of throwing it into disorder, as also in particular through the conditioned capacity of the individual to acquire for himself from that universal resource. The course of that necessity at the same time abandons the particularities through which it is brought about; it does not in itself contain the affirmative end of securing the satisfaction of individuals, but can, with respect to this, be either adequate or not — and the individuals are here, for themselves, the morally justified end.

The course of that necessity, since it is only the mode of operation of particularities as such, does not in itself contain the affirmative end of securing satisfaction, but can, with respect to it, be either adequate or not.
