That's assuming "giving people what they want" is inherently good, or worse, the only good. It is neither.
People getting what they want is neither good nor bad; it is effective at distributing resources. But this is distribution isnt inherently good either (effective != good).
We don't need to define "Good" in order to observe this. Very few definitions by anyone, let alone OP, produce this equivalence.
