This is a solid enough starting framework. But it's also been the starting framework for thousands of years of Western moral philosophy.
We have choices. We need to decide which of these options is "right" or "just." So let's just use some logical problem-solving. Except that it seems as though "reasonable" people strongly disagree about many things.
So the real question morality is concerned with is when does MY "reason" trump YOUR "freedom?"
