1. Do you think that there should be equal opportunity in a just society? What would you mean by this phrase? Do you think that it is a realizable ideal? Describe John Stuart Mill’s concept of
utilitarianism. Do you see any advantages or disadvantages of applying this to our society?
2. If psychology were to be an exact, or to use Mill’s phrase, a perfect science, then specific human acts could be accurately predicted. Would a prediction be accurate if the person about to
act becomes aware of the prediction prior to the act itself? Does the fact that a prediction can be known in advance disprove the possibility of predicting accurately or is that fact just one
more antecedent condition? Thoroughly explain your view.
