Bobsy the Human Pretzel, a world-famous contortionist, entered into a contract on December 1, 2018 to perform at the Omaha State Fair during the month of January, 2019. Alan, the organizer of the fair, advertised that Bobsy would be performing and received purchases for many tickets to the Omaha State Fair in advance. In December 10, 2018, Noland, the owner and director of the “Museum of the Strange and Unusual,” knew of Bobsy’s contract with Alan, and offered Bobsy more money and a private jet, among other things, to convince Bobsy to perform at his museum in January, 2019 instead of performing at the Omaha State Fair. On December 15, 2018, Bobsy contacted Alan and told him that he would not be performing at the State Fair but would be performing at the “Museum of the Strange and Unusual” instead. After Alan found out this information, he filed suit against Bobsy.

While in the shower, Bobsy decides to prepare for the show by performing the very basic contortionist move, “back bend ending in pretzel.’ He slips and breaks one of his legs and severely injures his back. (side note: a contortionist is an entertainer who twists and bends their body into strange and unnatural positions.) After being stabilized in the hospital, Bobsy immediately contacts Noland and tells him what happened. Noland tells Bobsy, “Sorry to hear that, its going to be very hard for you to perform with those injuries. Can’t wait to see you pull it off!” When Bobsy refuses to abide by the contract, Noland sues Bobsy for breach of contract, judgment for whom? Explain fully.

Psychological egoism is the theory that all human actions are aimed at avoiding some personal loss or gaining some personal benefit. If the theory is true, then altruism—the direct desire to benefit others for their own sake—does not exist. Psychological egoism is a descriptive theory about how people do behave rather than an ethical theory about how they ought to behave. Still, the truth of psychological egoism would have important ethical implications. Because we can’t be morally obligated to do the impossible, the truth of psychological egoism would mean that we cannot be obligated to behave altruistically. Accepting this would require us to substantially revise our ideas about morality.

There are a number of arguments for psychological egoism. One argument begins with the claim that every action is based on the strongest desire of the person performing it. For this to support the theory, however, the egoist must make the case that all of our strongest desires are for personal gain. A second argument claims that people always expect their actions to make them better off.

Ethical egoism is the theory that actions are morally right just because they best promote one’s self-interest. Although psychological egoism is one source of support for ethical egoism, one can consistently accept ethical egoism—the view that we ought to behave self-interestedly—while rejecting psychological egoism—the view that we always do behave in this way. Ethical egoism faces a serious difficulty at the outset: the theory implies that it is morally right to kill, rape, and steal any time these actions would be in our self-interest. These actions seem to be paradigmatic cases of immorality. This doesn’t prove that ethical egoism is false because our conventional ideas about morality could be mistaken. It does suggest, however, that we should accept ethical egoism only if there are strong arguments in its favor.

Egoists have advanced several arguments to support their position. Some claim that everyone would be better off if we were all to behave egoistically. According to egoism, however, the fact that something makes everyone better off is morally irrelevant, so this argument cannot support ethical egoism. Many egoists invoke libertarianism, according to which all of our moral duties derive from the sources of consent and reparation, to support egoism. The egoist cannot consistently accept such a view, however, because ethical egoism is committed to the idea that consent and reparation do not generate obligations—only self-interest can do so. The best argument for ethical egoism claims that if we’re morally required to do something, then we have good reason to do it. Furthermore, we have good reason to do something only if it makes us better off. This latter claim is questionable, however, because there seem to be cases in which we have good reason to do something (say, help a stranger) even if doing so does not benefit us.

Egoism also faces three serious problems. As mentioned before, it violates many widely shared moral beliefs. In addition, it cannot allow for the existence of moral rights that protect us from interference from others. After all, if violating my supposed rights would benefit you, egoism says that you morally ought to do so. Finally, egoism seems to arbitrarily elevate the interests of a single person over everyone else, and it is not clear how to defend such a bias. Given that the main arguments for egoism fail and that the theory suffers serious problems, we seem to be justified in rejecting it.

Does accepting one theory commit you to accepting the other? Does rejecting one commit you to rejecting the other? Why or why not?" Write at-least 200 words.
