&lt;p&gt;Philosopher Jeremy Bentham focused on happiness.  The maximum amount of happiness for the most people.  It is this that drove his version of utilitarianism.  Being that we ought to consider only the consequences of an act in order to determine its goodness, Bentham equated that goodness with happiness and a minimization of pain.  John Stuart Mill stepped in to carry Bentham's torch 1861 work 'Utilitarianism'.  &lt;/p&gt;
