Pick ONE оf these twо questiоns to аnswer. Be sure to sаy which one you аre answering. Question A: Do you think having friends is an intrinsic good? Or is it only instrumental? Explain why you think so. Be sure to explain what it means to be intrinsic or instrumental. Question B: Consider the following thought experiment: One person has a rags-to-riches life. He suffers greatly at the beginning of his life but by the end has great happiness. Another person has a riches-to-rags life. He is very happy in his childhood but throughout his life things go wrong until at the end he is miserable. If we add up the amount of happiness for each man, we discover that both had exactly equal amounts of happiness overall. Yet, it seems intuitively clear that the first man is better off than the second one -- that it is better to start badly and end well than the reverse. Do you think this provides a reason to doubt hedonism ? If so, explain why. If not, explain why not.
