Negative. What I am alluding to is the material reparation of generational harm done to the living….utilitarian action ALWAYS benefits a majority and harms a minority. This is why Rawls was keen on using The Veil of ignorance…. To no avail!

I am afraid that there are currently very few, if any, retrospectives “causes” to list… Reparations for Slavery is one example. But, in general, because of the “common good” cloak worn by utilitarian actions, the harmed are effectively buried …. The materialized risk is acceptable because the whole utilitarian endeavor was undertaken for “majority benefit” and the “common good”.
