Answer to Question 1

The fair rules idea of fairness is that of providing equality of opportunity is necessary for the allocation of resources to be fair. This is the economic application of the symmetry principle, that people in similar situations be treated similarly. Equality of opportunity can be achieved if two rules are obeyed:
 The government must enforce laws that establish and protect rights to private property that are held by individuals in society, and
 Private property may be transferred from one person to another only by voluntary exchange and without fraudulent representation.

Answer to Question 2

If the price elasticity of demand were positive this would mean that demand curve is upward-sloping. We are unlikely to find a price elasticity of demand that is positive because this would contradict the law of demand.

Drug abusers experience the following scenario: The pleasure given by their drug (or drugs) of choice is so strong that it is difficult to eradicate even after years of staying away from the substances involved. Certain triggers may cause a drug abuser to relapse. Research shows that long-term drug abuse results in significant changes in brain function that persist long after an individual stops using drugs. It is most important to realize that the same is true of not just illegal substances but alcohol and tobacco as well.
