11.Evil. 11. Evil by 
 usurpation 
 of respect due to
 age.
Under the greatest happiness
 principle, equality principle
 requires that in the
scale of respect superiority
be given to age. Reasons:
 1. All in turn will have it
2. Suspicion of injustice
 excluded.
 3. Envy and jealousy excluded.
4. Time and labour of contestation
 saved.
 5. Compensation for abatement
 of felicity.

12. Evil. 12. Evil by spectacle
 of injustice.
 Seen above the shapes
 1. Burthen to all
 2. Burthen to meritorious
 .
3. Burthen by injustice to 
 age.
4. Burthen by avoidable
 additions to unavoidable
 inequality.
Produced by those causes
 this evil is distinct from 
all.
17.
To subjects it presents rulers
 as authors of these injustices.
 Bad where injustice 
produces discontent: still 
worse, where not.
 By spectacle
 of injustice in one shape, 
 it is promoted in every other.
 By habit, sufferers are killed
 into acquiescence: by such
 acquiescence, authors
 encouraged
 in perseverance.

13. Evil 13. Evil by spectacle
 of waste.
 By disposition producing 
 waste in any shape, so
 in every other.
 As injustice, so waste.
By spectacle of it in any
 one, acquiescence and
 perseverance in every
 other.
19
Wasting hand, blasting pestilence.
Good nor evil in any
 shape money, power, punishment,
 pardon, time.
By blind pardons, people's
security wasted — by factitious
 honor their respect:
 by groundless holidays
 their productive time.

14. Evil 14. Evil by international
 contagion. In any
 one nation let evil in
 this shape be produced,
 it spreads over every other.
 Among all mutually acquainted
 i.e. civilized
 nations, draught thus
 drawn by Monarch on his 
 subjects for respect is 
 more or less honored by foreigners.
Truce, by difference in
 the ranks, and do. in the
 degree of information
 in relation to them, differences
 are produced
 in the quantities of the respect
 paid.
Still by every such title
 every where is a man
 recognized as belonging to
 the privileged orders:
 whose

whose existence is every
 where a nuisance, and 
 a dishonor to those who
 suffer it: the effect of it
 being small felicity to the
 few, at the expence of
 greater infelicity, to the 
 many: thence a proportionable
 public injury.
