Utilitarianism theory advocates that people acts on the maximum number of persons benefit and consider the fairness are mostly adopted in my decision situations. When the decision is take decision maker has to think about all the consequences for the maximum good for all. At the same time these peoples are giving importance to justice and great benefits for all. They also tend to change at the critical situations.
