EvaluationIn my opinion, Utilitarianism is a brilliant idea but it is impractical. The idealistic theory could never work as we are unable to measure the exact principle of the argument- the consequence of happiness. It is my opinion that we should act according to that which will result in the greatest happiness, but in the short term and in the matter that we understand happiness, as this is the closest we are able to get to reaching the goal set by Bentham and Mill. |
