As we discussed last week, our next reflection question will be on Moral Development on Ethics as we revisit the Heinz Dilemma

Here is our Reflection Question below

The Heinz Dilemma

A woman was near death from a special kind of cancer. There was one drug that the doctors thought might save her. It was a form of radium that a druggist in the same town had recently discovered. The drug was expensive to make, but the druggist was charging ten times what the drug cost him to produce. He paid $200.00 for the radium and charged $2,000.00 for a small dose of the drug. The sick womans husband, Heinz, went to everyone he knew to borrow the money, but he could only get together about $1,000.00 which was only half the cost. He told the druggist that his wife was dying and asked him to sell it cheaper or let him pay later. But the druggist said: No, I discovered the drug and Im going to make money from it. So Heinz got desperate and broke into the mans lab to steal the drug for his wife.

SHOULD HEINZ HAVE BROKEN INTO THE LAB TO STEAL THE DRUG FOR HIS WIFE? WHY OR WHY NOT?
