The correct option is "more     milgram"

Milgram's experiments showed that people are willing to cause harm to people (when ordered to do so) that they don't directly see, if they use techonology to cause this harm. We could explain this by saying that there is a certain sense of not directly causing harm then. In his experiment, when ordered, they did not hesitate to apply electric shocks to people in another room.

By extension, long-range missiles could make it easier for people to fire, since the victims would also not be visible, but rather far away

<em><u>short-termism </u></em>

Is the acting upon short term vision of the needs and problems that must be addressed. It is a problem because the vision that is important is the Long path vision.

<em><u>What is “longpath” and why did Wallach develop the concept?  </u></em>

Is a concept that combines long term vision and goal oriented. Wallach develop that concept as he did not find a term that frame what is intended in the long run that was goal oriented.

<em><u>Briefly discuss each of the three ways of thinking that Wallach describes.  </u></em>

Transgenerational thinking: Thinking the impact of your actions in the future generations to come.  

Futures thinking: The future is not related only with better technology but with how will human relationships, moral, art and feelings like compassion will evolve.

Telos thinking: This is an invitation to think having in mind what is the "ultimate aim" of our actions as little of they might be. It is important to raise the question: how this action that I am doing now will impact or change the future in 20,50 or 100 years to come.

<em><u>How does Wallach relate the future to a part of speech? </u></em>

Wallach make a link between Thomas Khun quote: “People don’t shift unless they have a vision of what it is they’re shifting to.” an Martin Luther King Speech of "I Have a Dream" he says that that speech is successful as it shows what is the vision of what a dream must looks like

If the insurance company knows that a person has intentionally lied about his/her age, they will adjust the insurance amount and premium to match the correct age of the insured. E.g. in this case, Lisa will probably be required to pay a higher premium on her policy, and depending on her age, the insurance amount might be lower.
