Markets need morals.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Markets are a good thing, and they are the best way of ensuring we have fairness.
Consumers have not been told effectively enough that they have huge power and that purchasing and shopping involve a moral choice.
In order to work well, markets need a basic level of trust.
One of the appeals of markets, as a public philosophy, is they seem to spare us the need to engage in public arguments about the meaning of goods. So markets seem to enable us to be non-judgmental about values. But I think that's a mistake.
Good morals lead to good laws.
Money, not morality, is the principle commerce of civilized nations.
The right moral compass is trying hard to think about what customers want.
Commerce is against morality. Morality is going to lose every time.
Where there is politics or economics, there is no morality.
Morality is a private and costly luxury.
