An example of a universal maxim that we, as citizens of a democratic republic, should see realized in our country. It should be a universally acclaimed concept that every person deserves to be cared for by the people around regardless of language differences, religion, skin color, education, income and place of origin. This should be enforced as a universal law where everyone will have a molar obligation to assist another person in problems such as accident, abandonment, illness, hunger, thirst, homelessness and loss, among others. The maxim should apply to all circumstances in which a human being possesses the ability to help another person with a need or problem. According to Kant, we have freedom of choice. Reason is probed by our will and will is probed by our inclinations. We can choose by controlling our will and this is done by reason. Letting desires take control causes a person to lose willpower until they become independent of inclination. Therefore, as human beings, we have the freedom to choose whether to help a person in need if we have the ability and opportunity.

If a person lets others suffer while it is possible to offer them help, then that person is considered to have a very low inner conscience. For a... half of the paper... andeparation.

So when I go to school, I can't be a student and a teacher. So I need the teacher to come to my aid and assist me in class work. So in my school life I need assistance from other people.
