PHIL 321 Lecture Notes - Lecture 9: Socialized Medicine
Document Summary
Why allow this: received opinion is wrong, received opinion is right, mixture of right and wrong. An argument about something that could significantly change, but much conversation is based on labels, but people don"t even know what the labels mean. Mill argues that liberty of thought and discussion is meant to change this. Socialized medicine: an argument that comes about when obama care or any government medical care. Received opinion: most people hold, the government wants you to hold. Woman are less capable of doing mental based work. When the received opinion is wrong you can see what you get when you fix it. More minds, the received opinion excluded 50% of population. A hell of a lot of risk and hell of a lot of damage is coming about because of this: we don"t know we are right. What if it actually is right: know the arguments for our position.
