PHL-316 3-1 Discussion: Ford Pinto and the TSA in the Light of Consequentialism Discussion Topic

Review the case of the Ford Pinto (refer to the “Ford Pinto” article if needed). Then read the article “Airport Security: Astoundingly Expensive and 95 Percent Ineffective.” In each case, do you think the right decision was made (i.e., to produce the car without modifications and to increase airport security spending)?
Compare and contrast the two decisions using arguments from utilitarianism, altruism, and egoism. In your response(s) to other students, explain why you do or do not agree with their arguments.
