Illicit behavior like the violation of market rules and of the law have become apparent not only during depression but also during boom times. Moreover, those who committed illicit acts are both corporations, though constituted of individuals, and consumers. So it seems that illicit behavior are unavoidable in the market economy. The question here is whether there exist the moral conditions in the market economy to prevent such illicit behavior. The answer is "Yes." In the market economy, according to the economic thought of Adam Smith, even morality is shaped and in turn socially institutionalized. If the market rules are violated repeatedly and such violations are not acceptable in the market, then the laws will be enacted by the government to punish them. In other words, the laws and regulations to deal with illicit behavior are considered to be socially institutionalized morality in the market economy.
