@greennomad @UKnoGum @the_blackwell_ninja indeed; Adam Smith warned for a lot of problems with unregulated free markets and the way humans would behave in such a system. Unfortunately all his warnings were ignored when people started to design the capitalistic model, causing him to be wildly misinterpreted https://cupola.gettysburg.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1019&context=ger
