If you have any trouble uploading the assignment email me directly using Canvas’s Inbox. Assignment Goals and Objectives This assignment is designed to test your ability to explain AND apply the theories you’ve been learning about over the past 2 weeks. To succeed on this assignment you should be able to: Explain the central arguments for virtue ethics (Aristotle), deontology (Kant), and utilitarianism (Mill). Apply each of the theories to a scenario to “test” the feasibility of their normativity. Formulate objections to (Aristotle), deontology (Kant), and utilitarianism (Mill) and consider possible solutions. Before you begin answering the questions you need to do some honest self-reflection and ask yourself if you understand the material well enough to explain it and apply it. A helpful resource is the Writing Philosophy page.Assignment Instructions There are three questions listed below you must answer ONLY two. Each question is worth 5 points for 10 points total. Each question has a similar format: you’ll be presented with a scenario and you must Explain the relevant aspects of the philosophical theories in question. This is similar to a philosophical exegesis. Click HERE for tips on how to do philosophical exegesis. Apply the philosophical theories to the scenario in question. For example, you should explain what Mill’s theory would require Mrs. Smith’s lawyer to do with her will and, most importantly, why. Then do the same for Kant. Assess which philosophical theory offers the best moral guidance for how one should act in the scenario in question. This should include an argument about why, for example, you maintain that Mill’s theory gives the best guidance to Mrs. Smith’s lawyer AND an argument about why, following the same example, you maintain Kant’s theory is inadequate. You should also include a potential way to strengthen the inadequate theory. Although the assignment is like an essay, you DO NOT need an introduction or conclusion. (Note that this is different than with your final essay answers, which do require introductions, thesis statements, and conclusions.)

You have now written four (4) case analyses. You will develop ONE for your second, and final, essay in connection with the topic you choose from below. You must answer all parts of the question to receive credit. Your answers need to be written as short essays (1000-1200 words), so you need to include an introduction and conclusion and any quotations or paraphrases must be appropriately cited. In addition, it is important to think of this essay as a development of your previous work — you won’t merely copy over that previous work, and then add an introduction and a conclusion. Instead, you will use the feedback from me, along with your further reflections and review, to revise and expand the case analysis you’ve chosen for this final essay. If you have questions about any of this please email me immediately. You can also check out this material on philosophical essay writing. Topics Welfare In this essay you have 5 tasks: Give a clear and concise explanation of the case at hand. Give a thorough, philosophical exegesis of the relevant aspects of Walzer’s and Murray’s arguments. (Click here for some tips on how to do a successful exegesis.) Present an argument applying the relevant philosophers to the case at hand. This should include an argumentjustifying who each philosopher would give the welfare to and why. Present an argument explaining why one of the philosophers can be viewed as offering a more successful solution to the case at hand. In no more than one paragraph, explain what solution you would propose for Rebecca and Jimmy. Consider Rebecca, a single mother of 4 who has been a long-term welfare recipient. Rebecca is a weekend meth user who often spends her money on meth. However, without her welfare money, her children would not have any food or medical treatment and would most likely be placed in foster homes where their lives would go worse than they currently are. Rebecca’s yearly welfare application is due. Now consider Jimmy, a veteran of both Desert Storm and Operation Iraqi Freedom. During the battle, Jimmy was wounded and now suffers from some moderate physical disability and post-traumatic stress. Sadly, although Jimmy tried to find a job, there weren’t many systems in place to help him re-integrate or work through his issues. Each day Jimmy begs for money at his local off-ramp. Through no fault of his own, Jimmy has fallen through the proverbial cracks. Jimmy applies for welfare. You are the welfare overseer. At most one person can get welfare. You can make ONE of the following three decisions: Give the welfare only to Rebecca Give the welfare only Jimmy Don’t give any welfare Healthcare this essay you have 5 tasks: Give a clear and concise explanation of the case at hand. Give a thorough, philosophical exegesis of the relevant aspects of Bradley’s and Peikoff’s arguments. (Click here for some tips on how to do a successful exegesis.) Present an argument applying the relevant philosophers to the case at hand. This should include an argument justifying in which world each philosopher would place Jim and why. Present an argument explaining why one of the philosophers can be viewed as offering a more successful solution to the case at hand. In no more than one paragraph, explain what solution you would propose for Jim. Consider Jim. Jim has worked in middle management his entire life. He had the option of paying into his company’s managed healthcare system but decided he wanted to keep the money instead and invest it in case he ever needed acute medical treatment. Unfortunately, on his 40th birthday, Jim decided to buy a red Corvette with that money. 6 months later, Jim went to a doctor to see why he was feeling so awful. The doctor diagnosed Jim with emphysema, diabetes, and kidney failure. All three of these conditions are the result of Jim’s lifestyle choices: smoking, poor eating and exercise habits, and excessive drinking. These conditions are chronic and will require treatment for the rest of Jim’s life including cutting-edge lung and kidney treatments and weekly meetings with a nutritionist, endocrinologist, cardiologist, etc. Here are the two possible healthcare “worlds” for Jim (he must be “placed” in one of them): Participate in a universal healthcare system, paid for by income taxes, which doesn’t provide Jim with the latest and greatest medical technology but does meet basic standards of care. Participate in a pay-for-service system, which allows Jim to pay for whatever treatment he wants and/or can afford but will not treat him unless he pays for the service. Capital Punishment
