    For sure. It’s just frustrating that our entire society seems to connect “trade” and “markets” to being invented by Capitalism. Like, no one knew how to trade their berries for meat, or invent currency until Adam Smith came along and mentioned the “invisible hand”.

    For some reason no one seems to take his writings as seriously when he talks about landlords though. So, odd how that worked out. /s
