Explain Kants argument that this principle that the will is an end in itself could be seen the basis of a moral community.

Consider Kants account of the ethical significance of free will. The autonomous will is taken by him to be the absolutely central condition of any moral life, and also as that which makes us subject to a set of unbending moral obligations. Explain how this is the case for Kant, and how it is the will that makes the difference between ends and means, and determines that all others should be treated as ends.

How does all of this lead to an ethics that stresses the obligations to others over obligations to self (in the form of well-being)?
