Problem
Phil works at Panucci's Pizza. He is scheduled to work Friday night, but he would rather go to the video arcade, instead.
Apply both utilitarianism and Kantian deontology to Phil's situation. For both theories, answer the following:
I. Does the theory recommend skipping work to go to the video arcade as the morally right thing to do?
II. What does the theory say that Phil must consider in order to answer question I? (Answer as completely as you can.)
III. What do you think about the theory's answers to questions I and II? Does the theory recommend the correct right action and for the correct reason(s)?
