Your response to this assignment should be roughly 750 words in length, typed, and in Word or PDF format, double spaced. The quality of the writing, to the extent that it interferes with my ability to understand what you say, will be taken into consideration in the grade. You are expected to use quotations and paraphrases from the text(s) under consideration; these must be cited properly with a page number. Failure to give a reference corresponding to a quotation will figure in the grade assigned.
Construct a response to the following question:
What do Paine and Bentham respectively mean by happiness? Would a “happy†person as described by Paine be “happy†according to Bentham’s standards? Conversely, could Bentham’s “happy†individual be “happy†from Paine’s perspective? Why or why not in each case? Explain clearly the rationale behind your response.
