Justice Illustrated in the State

I find it interesting that Socrates chooses to illustrates justice in the state, claiming it is easier to see justice in the state than in the individual. I don't think I agree with this. Surely, if you are speaking idealistically about people you can create a fake image of justice. But that image, being built on unrealistic ideas, can't stand. The only time perfect justice has and ever will be executed is through God. Men can attempt all they want to come close to it, but the only way a man will be just when they have a heart that is seeking after the Lord. I certainly understand Plato's examination of justice in the individual more--but justice in the state simply causes too many problems for me.
