Essаy: This sectiоn tests yоur knоwledge of the ethicаl doctrines by аnalyzing ethical dilemmas from the Rawlsian (contractarian), libertarian, and utilitarian perspectives. Each response should be one to two paragraphs in length and is worth 10 points. Suppose the United States government became libertarian in nature such that the only legitimate government oversight occurred in the realms of the police force, the military, and the legal system. Suppose also that some voters were pushing this government to build a universal healthcare system like those found in many European countries (especially in Scandinavia). What principles would guide the libertarian government's decision-making processes as to whether they should create a socialized healthcare system? Given those principles, would the government in fact create such a system? Why or why not?
