摘要：We analyze a model of resource allocation in which agents' abilities (to transform the resource
into an interpersonally comparable outcome) and initial endowments may differ. We impose
ethical and operational axioms in this model and characterize some allocation rules as a result
of combining these axioms. Two focal (and polar) egalitarian rules are singled out. On the one
hand, the rule that allocates the resource equally across agents. On the other hand, the rule tha
allocates the resource so that the distribution of final outcomes is lexicographically
maximized.
