We are starting a new book this week called “Utilitarianism”. This is the last book we are required to read to finish off the semesterJ. To be honest I am eager to discover how Mills work compares to the other authors we have read, but I am even more excited to finish up my two classes and enjoy my summer off. The topic utilitarianism, itself, is the moral belief that an action is right if it creates the “greatest good for the greatest number of people”. If you think an action will bring the maximum amount of happiness to the most number of people, then it is in fact the right thing to do. To me it sounds good in theory but what is good for you may not be good for someone else and if you ask me the only persons happiness you should truly care about is your own. With that said, here’s hoping this book brings me a little happiness while I’m reading it.
