Question Description
In this case Please use Rawls as your moral theory.
The response should in 1000 words in length. Your response must address the case directly – it shouldn’t just be a discussion of some issues that are in the neighborhood, but should assess the situation or actions of the people in the case. I want you to do is to write your own assessment of the case.These responses will be graded on clarity of argumentation (yes, these responses should be argumentative!) as well as your usage of the moral theories we have learned in the course.
Merely mentioning a moral theory is not enough – so, for example, if you think that raising the minimum wage would be the correct course of action for utilitarian reasons, then you ought to proceed to give an argument why Utilitarians in particular should agree with you. That is, you should argue not just that raising the minimum wage would be nice, or make people feel good, but that it would have the best consequences (this line of thinking will make sense when we cover what Utilitarianism is). Moreover you should be specific about what those consequences would be, and why they support your conclusion.
