> In the past we had systems based on wealth or families, with the concept being that fairness is about stakes in the political outcome. Why should anyone get a vote if they don't have a stake in the outcome

I would think those with no/ little wealth have a large stake in the outcome of politics.

Exactly what are you advocating for here?

I am not advocating, and if I were to extract some form of advocacy from it it would be that cooperation generally require compromises in order for people to feel that it is worth it. Fairness is based on when everyone involved feel that things are fair enough to participate.

What "between the lines" stuff are you trying to find?
