>Smith argued that the best way for any country to grow wealthy was not to try to make everything by itself, for no country could ever hope to do well in every sector of an economy. By nature, Smith observed, countries had strengths in particular areas – some were great at making wine, others had talent in pottery, others still might be experts at making lace – and it was on such strengths that every country should focus.
>This was an application at the level of nations of a theory we can understand well enough at the level of individual life. If someone has a natural aptitude for accountancy, it makes no sense for them to spend a considerable part of each day trying also to make cheese, to sew their own trousers or to learn to play violin sonatas. Far better for the accountant, cheesemaker, tailor and violinist to specialise in the areas in which they each have the greatest advantage and then trade with others to satisfy their remaining needs. As Smith noted: “It is the maxim of every prudent master of a family, never to attempt to make at home what it will cost him more to make than to buy.”
>Intellectually, free trade has undoubtedly won the argument. It is plainly evident that countries should not put up tariffs, that each country should trade goods and services where it has its advantages, and then allow imports to come in and if necessary decimate local industries where it doesn’t. When a Mexican worker can make a car for eight dollars an hour, whereas an American one costs 58 dollars an hour, it is clearly wise to allow Mexico to do what it can do best, whatever the effect on American car workers.

Why would a white nationalist support the father of anti-protectionist economic theory?

Smith was essentially the first globalist.

No problem with protectionism, I do agree with free markets philosophically however and the link between socialism and egalitarianism is an inherent one since they both believe that men are equal which is untrue.

Honestly, commies should appreciate Adam Smith. He destroyed mercantilism/feudalism, which is at least equally as bad as capitalism.

Why is mercantilism put side by side with feudalism?

They're not even close. Also feudalism was dead by the 18th century, with the exception of the Slavs

to be fair Marx did so

>>2488117

You can't own land in feudalism if you aren't a noble. You can't accumulate wealth too, again, if you aren't a noble.

>>2488162
That doesn't answer anything.

In both cases the means of production and wealth concetration are monopolized by the government and its aristocracy. They still are on capitalist societies, but social mobility is more common and acceptable.

>>2488336
It was only with Adam Smith's dismissal of mercantilism that social mobility became more common in society? Why?

NO, you fucking retard.

The father of all presumptuous and irritating theology must be exterminated.

>>2488400
you dunce he's just made an argument for the existence of a Deity, you don't have to interpret it the same way he did

>>2488396
Marx never said he was an atheist but you call him an atheist because other people called him that and he commented against religion

ergo Socrates is an atheist for the same reason

>>2488400
god is allegorical to the unmoved mover or a first principle
polytheism is worship of emanations, not what they emanate from

>religion is the opiate of the masses

>>2488464
>not knowing the charges were trumped up

>>2488431
And to add to this, a man of any faith stronger than casual deism would have been a very suspicious figure among those left-hegelians marx drank with.

neither is Marx

but like I said since simply calling someone atheist is enough why can't Socrates be atheist?

>>2488354

Not only Smith, but changes on socio-cultural practices that flows into Smith's liberalism led to a increasing social mobility. In the Middle Ages, according to Jacques Le Goff, wealth was a noble-only right, the peasants and merchants were expected to have a simpler life and to charge only a "fair price" for their products. When usury stops being seen as evil as before for catholics, it made possible for enriched merchants and bankers rise up the ranks and become nobles themselves by buying the titles from poor nobles. The Protestant Reform also helped shifting the qualities associated with labor: before, seen as punishment from God it will become a way to God show his blessing to his creatures. That's where a individualistic and work-driven ethos start to become the norm rather than the collective chaste system before it.

>>2488539
>neither is Marx
he is. how does >>2488431 not show that
he doesnt have to be explicit

Jesus before he had a following, same for Mohammad.

I'd go for Judaism, and just kill the Abrahamic tree at the root, making the other two unnecessary, but I'd need to do some research first on who to kill.

>people should produce things regardless if it's in any way efficient
Economics at it's core attempts to find the best way to allocate scarce resources, deliberatley making shitty, uncompetitve over priced goods isn't going to do anything but fellate the egos of retards who seriously think that the standards of living demanded by the modern first world can be achieved in tandem with an export based economy.
