Sometimes being scared and acting on instinct is the right thing but in this case Bentham got it right.

Modern ethics: Utilitarianism, but where each person's "Worth" is tied to their financial portfolio. Buying a yatch is ethical, because yatch owners' happiness is worth millions more than starving children. But you shouldn't steal from them to feed your worthless family.

Ha, good one. The "surprise" ending was spot on ... gotta love a repugnant conclusion!

Bentham over here being a saint and a kebab. Excellent!
