Ever heard people say the world is unfair. Of course, isn't it?
But frankly speaking, if you open your eyes wide enough and give it some time to think, you'll see that the world is fair indeed.
Okay just let me give you an imaginary example. Say in a class, there were a NERD and a TREND SETTER. TREND SETTER was always mean to NERD. Sticking gum at the seat of NERD, sticking pages of NERD's book with glue and hitting hime here and there to get some money. You know, the usual bully stuff. Now, NERD was a bright student but given the age cannot think far enough so he always thought that God wasn't being fair. 15 years after that, fueled byhis passion of physics and adrenalin rush, NERD becomes a roller coaster designer, creating many for amusement park around the world. TREND SETTER has becomed an average guy with an average job. Not really a trend setter anymore. He always bring his kids to the amusement park that has NERD's roller coaster.
Now, this example maybe a little bit far fetched but my point is, the world is fair. You must give it time and think about it. The 3 or so bucks NERD gave when TREND SETTER hit him back in their schooling day are given back to him in multiple in the form of admission fee to the amusement park. No need for hitting or taunting.
If you're feeling that the world in unfair or you're being treated unjustly, be patient and see the world from a different perspective. Maybe you'll be feeling a whole lot better.

In a way you are right. But when people say world is unfair, overwhelmingly (at least if you move away from the west) you will notice they mean that the world is unfair given the opportunities they were born and raised with and despite their misfortunes, the rich just does not care of the poor and the gap keeps widening.
The poor have a right to get some form of help in donations from the rich because Allah has given the rich the blessing of wealth. Wealth is a kind of test itself.
