Answer:

Morality constrains individual self-interest

Step-by-step explanation:

both authors believe that morality puts limits on what any given individual may do in the pursuit of his or self-interest. For example: Kant argues that one should never make a lying promise, even if is one's interest to do so; Bentham argues that one shoukd maximise everyone's aggregate pleasure minus pain, not only one's own.

Bentham and Kant agree on Maximizing pleasure and minimizing pain is all that matters, morally speaking.
