Over all the comparing and contrasting the well-beings of various people and determining who has the greater complaint seems trivial. I suppose it is merely the language of this that throws me. I have to ask though how it matters who has the greater complaint? It seems enough for people to work for the general well-being of all and that the greatest wellbeing of the greatest number of people has precedence. I am not a fan of utilitarian theories but when determining how to handle the greatest good for the greatest number of people it many times seems like there is little other way to go. I really don’t have anything to say on this.
