Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao compared a fair distribution of social wealth to the government's social conscience in an on-line chat with netizens Saturday.
Wen said, "It is unfair when a society's wealth is in hands of a few people, and in that case, the society must be unstable."
He said it is the government responsibility to "make the cake of social wealth as big as possible" and the government conscience to "distribute the cake in a fair way."
The fair distribution of social wealth concerns social justice, Wen said, adding it actually involves distribution of national income.

To "make the social wealth cake bigger," efforts should be made to concentrate on enhancing production capacity and take economic construction as a central task, he said.
Wen said special attention should be paid to changing the development mode and "make our economic development really focus on the advancement of science and technology and the quality of labor force."
