The Greatest Happiness Principle

This article introduces the concept of the utility principle given by John Stuart Mill and critically evaluates it. In the article "What is Utilitarianism" #, Mill proposed a theory of utilitarianism, he summarized his "utility" or "principle of maximum happiness" (Mill 89). The focus of Mill is "happiness" based on behavior, # lack of happiness and pain, or "unhappiness", # lack of goods and satisfaction, not a related intention (Mill 89). After evaluating Muller's principle, I will discuss my personal view on this principle and how to believe that it can be changed to adapt better to the situation in reality I will conclude the article.

"The principle of maximum happiness" gives the most "utility" / "happiness". Because they tend to reverse happiness as the basis of morality, utility, or the principle of maximum happiness, they think that behavior is correct as they tend to promote happiness. Happiness knows that they exist, for happiness, no pain, lack of happiness, lack of pain, and assumption of happiness (I think so). Everything else can be imagined as a result of Satan's input, he just wants to mess with us. We may not have a real body or feeling (think of the matrix). However, the fact that it can not be an illusion or an erroneous input is that people think ... something exists.

As a philosophical approach, utilitarianism usually focuses on the principle of 'greatest happiness'. According to the principle of maximum happiness, the act of promoting overall happiness and happiness is considered a correct behavior. In addition, for Mill, actions to improve happiness are morally correct, while actions that produce bad results and unfortunate consequences are considered moral errors. From this point of view, we can deduce that Utilitarianism will give us moral responsibility and diversity.

Mill's principle of maximum happiness (the principle of utility) establishes that happiness is the ultimate standard for establishing morality and immorality. However, personal happiness sometimes conflicts, so such a thought may be problematic, it is a fact of life. For example, if individual A believes money is a fundamental means of increasing their own happiness, decreasing their suffering and deciding to steal from B, he / she will, after successfully completing the robbery, She will be happy. The problem is that B is not so happy and may suffer more after being deprived, so if the working standard is based solely on everyone's happiness, guiding people's behavior, especially behavior there It will be totally useless.
