Once again you are not asking an economic question, you are using a metaphor. You are also ignoring expectations:
The question you are asking is either a moral or legal question in a void, not in real life and in practice with people who are relevant to the decsions being made - hence the question becomes incomprehensible. We live in a market world, the market IS everything that we can put in context, and we live in a world of expectations where people make their day to day calculations within some form of a market context.
No matter what: the market “solves the problem”, and “creates the problem”
