According to mills, an action is morally good if it increases overall happiness. The one question I would ask Mill is if he would condone murder if that act would increase overall happiness. For instance, say there was a bum on the streets that had no family and no one in the world that would be affected if he had died. For weeks that bum was robbing houses and committing acts that decreased overall happiness. If I were to murder that bum would Mill consider my act morally good because it increased overall happiness.
