I must admit if we have no free will then morality in most forms we have in society becomes a form of compatibilism.
Having said that I do have wants (will). And the question then becomes what is the best way to achieve that want? Here the oughts and shoulds pop into being. These become supposed best paths for achieving my want. We can broaden this to a societal wants which might be at odds to my personal wants. These wants are determined by our environment as are our shoulds and oughts in that we as individuals are fully embedded in our past and present environment
