Aristotle First to create comprehensive system of Western philosophy. Morality Aesthetics Logic and science Politics and metaphysics

Cicero Used philosophy to bring about political goals

John Rawls Certain general conditions that are… Equally to everyone’s advantages Contributions Liberal political philosophy Justice as fairness A theory of Justice

Criticisms/Problems “Free-rider” Taking benefits the common good provides Refusing to support common good themselves

Individualism Individual freedom Personal insights “Do their own thing”

Unequal sharing of burdens Some individuals/groups bear greater cost Unjust to those bearing greater cost

Appeals to Common-Good Should not be dismissed Urge us to reflect The society we want to become How we will achieve that society

Challenges us View ourselves as members of the same community Respect and value the freedom of individuals Further those goals we share in common

Affordable Health Care Current ethical dilemma No insurance- 50 million Americans Underinsured-25 million Americans Limits on coverage Rising health care premiums

Questions How does the up coming election affect the common good of all? How does the common good approach affect us as students?
