1. Markel?s proposed ethical model is the combination of Kant?s and Rawls models to ethics. Kant?s second formulation of the categorical imperative states that, ?if we are to treat others as ends, we have to accord them their full dignity, which means that as communicators we have to write and speak truthfully, in the broadest sense of the word.? Rawls? concept of the ideal society helps illustrate Kant?s ideas of free will: ?it is difficult to imagine a person in the original position, not knowing whether he or she would be the technical communicator or the software customer, approving the idea of lying in the product advertising.? Applying these models to my everyday life whether professionally or academically seems to be easy to think about. The way I see this in my professional life now, working for the Worldwide budget office, is if i were to process a budget transfer like usual, but realized i made a mistake after submitting the transfer, then turned the transfer into my boss without correcting the mistake. Later my boss would find the mistake and ask me about it, and I would say that I did not do it, so she then has to go in and find out what went wrong and take longer doing that than it would have been just for me to fix it. If i did not lie to her in the first place and just fixed it when I found the mistake I would not have to lie to her and the process would have been shortened.
2. I personally agree with Hale?s original position, because we should be able to make decisions for the population as not ourselves, but as those people. The people making major decisions about the country should be able to?essentially put their wealth and social status behind them, to form a decision based on other people?s need and not their selves.??Political figures should try to step into other people?s shoes without considering themselves at all. Society as a whole should abide by this thinking, so that the country and world could be a better place.
