    Sample:

    Analyzing the moral worth of Ford. To do this you would have to consider if Ford acted in the customers best interest or not. Ford has a responsibility to make decisions that will keep people as safe as possible when producing products. In this case, the big question is whether Ford should have changed the fuel tank design or added additional parts in order to make the car safer. When is a fatal car accident the fault of the manufacturer? Where do you draw the line as to where negligence starts on behalf of Ford? Car accidents are going to occur and its unlikely you can keep everyone safe. I do believe you can increase the chances of survival by adopting helpful safety measures.

    I believe Ford applied Consequentialismfor Ethical Reasoning. They were focused on the results of what was going to happen and put profit before people. In this case, the choices were to fix the faulty gas tank or produce the car with the problem and deal with the fall out down the road. They were deciding on which would make the most sense and be the most profitable. Ford created a cost-benefit analysis that would help decide what change if any, to deal with the exploding gas tank situation. Ford chose to ignore the gas tank fix and produce the car with a knowing safety hazard.

    Egoism was a factor that played a role with the decision making at Ford as well. Egoism is described as choosing options that benefit yourself and others close to you. Ford did this by putting profit ahead of safety.

    Ford had a number of options to consider in this case. They include; re-design the rear end, install rubber bladder for $5.08, give consumers the chance to add fixable upgrade or make a public statement about the issue. Ford believed at the time these options would have been too costly and delay the release of the Pinto. Also, profits would suffer along with consumer confidence. Its easy to say now that the fix should have been the only solution. At that time, safety wasnt considered important in car design. President of Ford at the time, Lee Iacocca said, Safety doesnt Sell. This was the mindset back then when considering to spend more on something Ford felt was insignificant.

    The creation of the cost-benefit analysis in this situation was not ethical. I believe it failed the Catholic social tradition principles by not participating in the betterment of society and failing to respect the dignity of life. I get the fact that cost analysis needs to be done. Insurance companies associate costs to the lives of people. They have costs on the degree someone gets injured in an industrial accident, for example. The difference I believe is, those are made with the intention and the hope nothing will go wrong but, just in case we are prepared. In the Ford case, the cost-benefit analysis was created knowing full well something tragic was going to happen. Its one thing to prepare with the intention of nothing happening. Ford prepared for the lose of lives before anything happen.

    The best solution in my opinion would be to spend the $5.08 and fix the issue. Using the utilitarianism concept, which is choosing an option that would do the greatest good for everyone while taking life into consideration. Fixing the problem would have put Ford in the position of trying to do the greatest good for the most people. This would have created a sense that Ford was righting a wrong. This solution would likely result in less blow back if something did happen in the future. Ford can be confident in saying they did the best they could and were upfront about the issue instead of hiding the problem. Putting peoples lives in danger in order to save money is a highly unethical decision. People want to believe the company is making the best decisions possible when it comes to keeping them safe.

What about your parents/family of origin? If you have a spouse, what is your spouses dominant style? Did these styles make conflict difficult to manage in those relationships, or was conflict typically managed well?

  • Essay #2

    For Essay 2, you will continue to practice applying the concepts from the text to a personal experience. For this assignment, you will explain how a habit you have (or have had) follows the habit loop as explained by Charles Duhigg in Chapter 1-3 of his book The Power of Habit and come up with a plan to change this habit (or explain how you have already changed it) based on Duhiggs theories of habit change. In order to explain your habit and connect it to Duhiggs discussion of habits, you will have to explain a few concepts to your readers. Be sure to think about the various aspects of habit formation described by Duhigg, including the habit loop, craving, the Golden Rule of habit change, and the role of belief in habit change (introduction) What your habit is as well as how you plan to change it (thesis) Explain your habit in great detail. Connect it to the habit loop and how your habit follows this loop (body paragraph 1) The role of craving in habit creation in general and in your habit specifically (body paragraph 2) The Golden Rule of habit change and how you might change your habit according to this rule and the role of belief in habit change and how you might incorporate this concept into your plan to change your habit (body paragraph 3) Re-state main points, drive home why its important to learn about habits, and if/how you plan to change yours. Leave the reader with some final thoughts or things to ponder (conclusion) You should write your essay for people who are NOT in this class and who are NOT familiar with Duhiggs book. This means youll need to spend some time summarizing key ideas, defining any terms that might be unfamiliar, and choosing short quotations from the text to help your reader get a sense of what the author is talking about This essay is not just about explaining concepts; it requires you to apply Duhiggs theories to your own personal habit. This means you must analyze your habit and make a plan for change (or analyze a past habit and discuss the changes you have already made) by applying the information you learned about habits from Duhigg. A few things to remember: You should also include details, examples, and quotations from the readings to help you develop your analysis Talk about complexities for example, feel free to disagree with Duhiggs claims about habits, but be sure to fully explain your argument Must be MLA formatted You should do a little outside research (Google is your best friend here) and look up what other people say about habits and habit change
