Have you ever heard a statement in the like of "Moral in politics is not the same as moral of individuals"? (A commonly cited implication is that the lives of a few should be sacrificed, if this would save the whole community (e.g. society, state, etc) and from the point of view of politics it would be a moral act.)
Is this view rooted in some specific political philosophy or even theory, or is it a mere speculation?
Either way, how would you comment that statement? Can we really keep have more than one moral in our conscience?
