sobriqueThere is no justice, only consequences for you actions.
Every choice you make has it's consequence, every action it's price.
Going to prison for a crime isn't justice, it's just a consequence of getting caught.
The laws exist from a consensus of right and wrong. Many are simply to provide a framework, a baseline of assumptions.
If you operate within the framework, and so does everyone else, then we have a society that works. Conformity is requisite, not because of 'Justice' but because otherwise society breaks apart.
