Walden

“The good of many outweigh the good of one.”

This quote isn't Thoreau’s. Knowing his ideas, explain why Thoreau would or would not agree. Be sure to make it clear what you think Thoreau’s stance would be by writing “Agree” or “Disagree” at the beginning of the response.

No, I don't thin Thoreau would be down with this. Thoreau was all about the rights of the individual over the rights of the collective. He felt the individual spirit and ethic was the ultimate good. People needed to find their own way.
