Comment by BenjaminB on Torture vs. Dust Specks · 2012-07-17T03:08:42.701Z · LW · GW

At first, I picked the dust specks as being the preferable answer, and it seemed obvious. What eventually turned me around was when I considered the opposite situation -- with GOOD things happening, rather than BAD things. Would I prefer that one person experience 50 years of the most happiness realistic in today's world, or that 3^^^3 people experience the least good, good thing?
