Agreed. If value is subjective, which it obviously is, then most standard economic measures have a huge amount of error in them. An economist would argue that the price system effectively aggregates supply and demand in order to convey value. This is in itself a fantasy as market prices even in those conditions most approximating Walrasin assumptions still come no where near meeting them. Then add the fact that 'vaule' out of necessity changes depending upon who is doing the evaluation....well, you get the picture.
No raindrop believes itself responsible for the flood that follows.

I have thought of writing a diary linking the themes of this one (specifically, the implicit bargaining in Kaldor-Hicks) with the pie-cutting problem.
guaranteed to evoke a violent reaction from police is to challenge their right to "define the situation."
