I agree that to an extent, we're all programmed to make decisions in a certain way. Free Will is something that exists in that sense, that we do have the capability to disregard that programming if we think it's worthwhile.
But we still generally don't because it can be very bad for us if we do.
Not always, of course. But that's a whole other discussion to be had on what we should ignore from cultural programming.
