You do realize that even Karl Marx himself agreed with Smith on a number of points, right (including this one)? I know this is Lemmy where uneducated socialism is the predominant ideology to the point of what often amounts to hostility to learning more about anything, but it would be a good idea to read an actual book every now and then and learn how to recognize nuance, especially in political and economic topics. It astounds me how few of the self-proclaimed socialists on Lemmy have read any of the actual views or History of Karl Marx.
