Backed off? The discussion you referenced was about how
I (or Jon, or someone else) would choose to allocate resources. _The_
way _I_ would do it is a free market. And I said it was the way (I would choose)
to _efficiently_ allocate resources. I don't know about "appropriate". People
want a lot of things, and the free market is the most efficient way I know of
to supply those things to people who want them. I make no judgement about
whether it is "appropriate". I do make judgements about what is fair -- I
consider
consensual deals fair, and barring people from consensual deals to be unfair.
