holy cow, I finally finished it


It took me 15 months, hundreds of cups of coffee, and countless hours of sporadic reading, but I finally finished all 1207 pages of the "Wealth of Nations" by Adam Smith. I guess you can say I learned a lot from it, but let's just for the sake of argument boil it all down to this:

empiricism=good
mercantilism=bad
free markets=good

Reasons why possibly forthcoming. Who wants a mini-bust of Adam Smith???
