The happy pill is the key

Monday's symposium discussed the theoretical "happy pill" and its abilities. I have to disagree with both Mill's consequentialist and Kant's deontologist approach on the matter. Mill sees the pill as favorable but thinks being content is not happy. I have to disagree. In my opinion, the pill could solve all of society's problems. In this case, the greatest good of the people is the moral action, similar to the example of martyrs we discussed in class.  What can be better than ending society's turmoils? Crazy people's erratic behaviors? This pill could potentially achieve world peace. Some may argue about our race's progress being halted, but the pill argues in favor of the most pleasure with the least pain. In other words, we can sacrifice some of the perks we enjoy of in favor of happiness. It would be interesting to see what the real effects this theoretical pill would cause.
