Document Summary
That the market itself distorts relationships, and society"s conscious. It is an individual society. it"s a society where you take care of your self b. c gov isn"t going to do it for you. To defend the market - is that it is full of ideas and profit and competition is innovation of ideas and justification. This is what aristotle and others argued is the ideal society. to make decisions that benefit the society, more collective. Less about a tress but rather the whole forest! There is conflict though, there is a tension btw individual interests with those with the larger society. people"s preferences come from outside, they look at others and do what they do. In a polis model, there is suppose to be more cooperation -eg having a public health care. (that means we share the risk, we alternate our taxes for it) Canada is drifting to a market model, it is more polis!
