How would a typical person answer each of the following questions about causation?
The city planner's assistant came to him and said, "We finally developed a plan to address our pollution problem. We have a new reclamation project that will clean up the toxic waste polluting the former industrial area. However, if we actually do implement the project, it will also increase the levels of joblessness." The city planner answered, "I feel terrible about increasing joblessness. But we have to do something about our pollution problem. Let's start the project." They started the project. Sure enough, the toxic waste polluting the former industrial area was cleaned up, and joblessness level increased. Did the city planner increase levels of joblessness intentionally?
