Description
You are to place yourself in the Original Position behind the Veil of Ignorance. You are to choose an education system, a health care system, a social security system and roughly decide on a system of taxation and spending.
In order to justify your position, you can add three principles of justice in addition to the ones Rawls proposes (I am going to assume that Rawls is correct when he thinks everyone would agree to his principles).
The best way to think about this thought experiment is to read and reread the 2nd paragraph from Anthony Kenny and the 2nd paragraph from Michael Sandel, from my lecture notes parts 3 & 4.
You must all agree on these proposals and the principles underlying them.
