This is a 5 page paper discussing the argument presented by Mill in Chapter 4 of “Utilitarianism” (1863). John Stuart Mill was raised on the utilitarian principles indoctrinated by his father James which are based largely on people’s actions are the result of their desire for ultimate happiness and all actions are elements of this happiness or a means to attain it. In Mill’s Chapter IV of “Utilitarianism” (1863), he attempts to prove this system of utility based on the principle of desire for ultimate happiness. To do this, he uses an indirect method of proof and in accepting his argument the reader must accept the basis of utilitarianism in order to extrapolate his principle to include the elements of will and virtue; elements many philosophers believe are not conscious acts of desire but remain unconscious in their design. Mill believes that will and virtue along with other elements such as money, power and fame are all originally based on the desire for general happiness and are therefore included.
