The objectors say that Utilitarianism is asking too much because it is unreasonable to ask that people think and act out of the motivation of overall happiness. Mill’s response to this is that he is not asking people to think about overall happiness while making decisions, he is only telling them to do things to increase overall happiness. The example of the two people that donate to charity and that one is only doing it to get a tax cut is a good example for this because it shows that the one person is only doing it for the selfish reason of receiving in return a tax benefit and not to increase overall happiness. This proves the objectors wrong, and shows that people can have other reasons for doing things and still increase overall happiness in the end. Even though the person getting the tax cut is increasing overall happiness on a greater scale because he is also making himself happier, the other person is just as happy because he just donated to charity. I believe that is acting out of the knowledge of helping others and not himself.
