What is the basis for decision making?
It seems that all decisions by humans must be somewhat arbitrary.
There seems to be no reason why we should choose A rather than B. That is to say no law or possible empirical calculation.
There appears to be an infinite number of things we could do at any given moment from subtle movements, to using our lips to for an intelectual sentence, and much more.
So are we making decisions based on our own unconscious internal ideological agenda, or is there some other driving force?

I think most reactions are unconscious decisions. Even if we want to believe we thought about it, those decisions are still influenced in ways we aren't sure of. We're also not capable of consciously making decisions for everything we do. As you said, there's so many things we're doing at a time.
