OK here goes Platt - though clearly I'm going to regret it ;-) Natural ? Because they are according to the MoQ - that natural order of natural processes.
Example ? Natural responsibilty to recognize that our social and intellectal patterns are supported by existing biological and physical patterns, so we'd better not allow our socio-intellectual models of economics undermine or devalue the bio-physical environment. Example ? Natural responsibilty that the value of intellectual objects I can count (like capital) are dependent on social patterns in people, like trust, so I'd better remember to value those patterns too. Valuing mutual dependencies in patterns that are bigger than me and my bank account - to paraphrase gav and Mary. (PS - ref your other mail to Mary - since when was the value of the dollar "solely controlled by government policy" !?!?! ) Regards Ian On Mon, Feb 15, 2010 at 3:43 PM, <[email protected]> wrote: > On 15 Feb 2010 at 8:38, Ian Glendinning wrote: > >> To leave markets (and democracies) >> unregulated would be a criminal abnegation of our natural moral >> responsibilities, like leaving our human brains at the door before >> entering society.
