The Categories of Value

Its easy to usurp Importance factors or risk categories to inanimate objects such(prenominal) as buildings, bridges, airplanes, dams, cars, and buses. It is lovely to say that the structural integrity of a hospital is more burning(prenominal) than that of a single family residence especially, in the case of an emergency. When assigning vastness or value to individual lives, we are confronted by an overwhelming brotherly dilemma How does society assign value to souls lifetime?The essence of life or simply living and given the hazard to fit a contributing member of society is priceless and has an unclimbable monetary value however, within the constraints of the society we live in, we are coerce to assign a monetary value to an individual life. If we strip forward what makes us benevolent our souls we can assign value and categorize human life by the sum of their contributions to society and the impact their absence would make. Those that founder horrible crimes and retu rn negatively to society belong to the first category.Those who tolerate very little or havent had the chance to contribute to society belong to the befri barricade category. Those contributors whose sudden absences take up a runty amount of people belong to the third category. Those whose sudden absence affects umpteen people belong to the fourth. Finally, those whose sudden absence can affect an stainless society for generations to come belong to the fifth part category. Murderers and individuals who wish harm on innocent people belong in the first category. They are in the first category due to their lack of contribution and harm to our society.Truly without them thither would be less damage and fear in to daytimes world. You can easily distinguish the remnant between the first and hour category in the perspective of comparing them to someone in the second category, such as children and individuals whose lives were cut short, and sadly unable to even gravel to contribut e to society the ones in the first category are the ones who ordinarily end up in prisons for violent crimes or serious violations, enchantment the ones in the second category generally contains young people who havent had a chance to make a difference in society.Individuals in the third category would be the ones whose deaths would affect a smallish amount of people such as a blue dig worker who supports their family with their salary. The sudden loss of this somebody would be saddening but only the immediate family exit typically need monetary compensation to breed any expenses left behind. In comparison, the ones in the fourth category whose deaths would affect a much larger amount of people such as, owners of great businesses whose death may result in the layoff of many employees.The individuals in the fifth category are the ones who have a huge contribution to our society, such as individuals who find cures to devastating diseases, physicist on the verge of making a gre at breakthrough, world leaders, and important policy makers. Without them our society let simply the whole world, would not be the same, they are the ones who make a difference in peoples lives. In the article, What Is the Value of a military man Life? by Kenneth Feinberg, he explores the moral problem with assigning dissimilar values to different members of society.The author finds it troubling that the compensation for someones death be related to that persons financial situation. For example, someone in the fourth category mentioned above will most probably be a wealthy business owner while the person in the third category may be a unassuming middle class individual and would receive compensation accordingly. At the end of the article he states that in the future, he will provide contact compensation regardless of the persons financial circumstances or status in society.I believe that monetary compensation should only elevation funeral expenses and enough income to allow their immediate families time to adjust to the loss and become self-sustaining. It is okay for a society that is based on capitalism to neutralize and assign a monetary value to individuals. It is our souls and humanity that will always be in conflict with manmade laws and forged societies. That is why this debate will never end. The day that currency becomes obsolete will be the day that society will truly discover that the only thing outlay valuing is life itself, not money.
