it is absolutely unacceptable <i>to you</i>. Should people who believe that anything other than their specific branch of Christianity amounts to Satanism force their view on &quot;the market&quot; as well? What do you mean by &quot;our&quot; cultural aspirations? Are you talking in the royal We, or so you have a mouse in your pocket?<p>What you&#x27;re actually saying is that you want some outcome other than what the market, which absolutely is a naturally occurring phenomenon despite your beliefs, has produced. And, like everyone else who wants to force their own outcomes, you propose to do so based on a view of morality that you want imposed on everyone else.<p>The market is the result of a multitude of people making their own independent judgements and decisions about the value and desirability of goods and services. That&#x27;s it. Anything that interferes with it to produce specific outcomes isn&#x27;t &quot;shaping&quot;, &quot;influencing&quot;, or even &quot;interfering&quot; in the market. It&#x27;s an attempt to replace the market, and thus the right of other people to act on their own judgement, with something else.<p>Whatever that something else is, it&#x27;s not a civilized society.
