Because it was about me and an alien hanging out.
The Israeli Parliament has started the approval process for a bill banning people from calling someone a “Nazi” or any other offensive term related to the Holocaust. The bill is in response to younger Israelis’ growing use of terms such as “Nazi” and “Gestapo” in casual conversation or as jokes. No one knows exactly how far such a law may go: Existing movies and television shows that use the offensive words could be banned if the bill passes. Israel, however, is a democratic nation. Can it outlaw a word and still have free speech?<span>

He is taking the <u>utilitarian</u> approach to moral reasoning.
Explanation:
The utilitarian approach to moral reasoning, or utilitarianism, is a theory in ethics that's concerned with the outcome of a certain action. If the benefits seem to be heavier than the harm on an ethical scale, that the action is worth doing. This approach is largely used in military and business. It can, for instance, justify a government's decision to go to war. The leaders of a country believe the outcome of the war will make up for the lives lost and the money spent.
That is the reasoning in the passage we were given to analyze. Losing some members as a harmful consequence caused by the increase does not seem that bad when compared to the benefits of keeping the club solvent.
