When Everything Has a Price Tag

Picture a world where you can buy your way out of almost any inconvenience. Need to skip airport security? That'll be $39. Want to hunt an endangered black rhino? $150,000, please. Prefer not to wait in line at a congressional hearing? Hire someone to stand there for you. This isn't science fiction-it's our reality. Over the past three decades, market thinking has seeped into nearly every corner of life, transforming civic duties into purchasable commodities and moral questions into price calculations. What began as faith in free markets for economic efficiency has evolved into something far more pervasive: a worldview that treats everything as tradable, every choice as a cost-benefit analysis, and every human interaction as a potential transaction. The 2008 financial crisis briefly shook our confidence in markets' wisdom, yet somehow strengthened their grip on our imagination. We've created a society where the answer to almost any problem is "let the market handle it"-but we've stopped asking whether some things shouldn't be for sale at all.
