NAV101: Naval Ethics and Leadership Module 4 Consequences Re…

For this assignment, please follow the instructions below:

1. Using what you learned in Consequences: The Second Step in the Moral Deliberation Road Map, make a case for why the government officials in New York did the morally right thing by flooding the town of Olive. (You dont have to personally agree with the argument.) Also, explain the counter-argument: Why might someone reasonably think what they did was morally wrong?
2. Using what you learned in Consequences: The Second Step in the Moral Deliberation Road Map, explain what you should do in Per Diem, using only consequentialist arguments. Which action will bring about the best consequences? Remember to consider the following:
3. Long- and short-term consequences
4. Everyone affected by your decision (including people you dont know, like other people in the Fleet and U.S. taxpayers)
5. How much everyone is affected by your decision (e.g., one person might barely be affected, but another person might be strongly helped or hurt)
6. What happens if others learn what you did and imitate your behavior?

Note: Your consequentialist argument might go against the constraints argument you made last week. Thats okay! We will try to put all the arguments together later.Guidelines and Requirements
