It feels like most people don't have ethics most of the time. You have to convince them on other grounds. Price would be a part of that.

Ethics is subjective.

Is it ethical to eat dogs? Some societies do, some don't.

Should we judge lions for eating meats? Perhaps convince them to move to a vegan diet?

What you are advocating is forcing your views on others, and that "price" should be the factor.

What if others don't want you do to do something, would you enjoy having it priced out of your reach?

Why do you "have to convince them" in the first place? wouldn't it be easier to do what makes you happy and keep your opinions to yourself and your like-minded friends?
