Scottish economist #AdamSmith published one of his key works, short-titled #TheWealthOfNations, on #ThisDayInHistory in 1776. More so-called capitalists should read this text, as they would find Smith & Marx shared much, and #neoliberals would recognize little of their own views.

The book #TheWealthofNations by the Scottish economist and philosopher #AdamSmith, one of the first accounts of how nations build wealth, was first published on this day, 9 March, 250 years ago in 1776.
#AdamSmiths #TheWealthOfNations beschreibt primär, wie Arbeitsteilung, Märkte und Institutionen Wohlstand erzeugen …
die Ausbeutung der Natur ist darin weder explizite Prämisse noch normatives Ziel. …

#AdamSmith setzte sich ja in #TheWealthOfNations nur an 2 Stellen mit #Handelsbilanzdefiziten auseinander, Buch II Kapitel 3 a) "Of the extraordinary restraints ... balance is supposed to be disadvantageous" wo er quasi einfach schreibt, dass solche Bilanzen eh zu ungenau sind,
