Why would a philosophy major would have better ethics than my, for instance?

Ethics are greatly influenced by so many aspects different to whatever career someone chose to study.

And we could cut the middleman just voting and electing people with the same ethical values as me. It would be a piss off democracy if I chose a representantive who campaigned for painting all buses blue because I share that view just for some unelected person coming to say “no that’s not ethical you shall not do that”.

Ethics of a society emerge from the society, not for a few individuals.
