[QUOTE="Moral Orel, post: 76366874, member: 377019"] No, no, no. I value it, therefore I ought to value it. Me valuing it is me recognizing that it has intrinsic value. Everyone knows that chocolate ice cream is intrinsically valuable. Every year there is about 6.4 billion pounds of ice cream produced amounting to $13.1 billion dollars of [I]value[/I] to the US economy. And that's just the US! No way would humans do all of that for something that isn't valuable. There are laws against stealing chocolate ice cream because we recognize that something of intrinsic value was lost. There are laws about how it's produced. Those are objective. We don't write laws for subjective things. Chocolate ice cream is intrinsically valuable and everyone knows it, even if they disagree because of their subjective feelings. [/QUOTE]
