I guess LL doesn't really want to talk about those little tidbits of info, they're inconvenient to their agenda.
...and consequently of forming any just judgment concerning many even of the ordinary duties of private life... But in every improved and civilized society this is the state into which the labouring poor, that is, the great body of the people, must necessarily fall, unless government takes some pains to prevent it"
Oh man, whoever said that must have seen division of labor as potentially dangerous and government intervention as pretty important.
I found this quote by some guy who was really concerned about the division of labor:
"The man whose whole life is spent in performing a few simple operations, of which the effects are perhaps always the same, or very nearly the same, has no occasion to exert his understanding or to exercise his invention... The torpor of his mind renders him not only incapable of relishing or bearing a part in any rational conversation, but of conceiving any generous, noble, or tender sentiment,...
"Guns, Germs,and Steel" as well as "Outliers" have been pushing my thinking about things like this to make me want to know a much longer and more detailed history of an area to try to see why they might be technologically and economically successful or not. The speaker seems to be focused on the fairly recent, which isn't horrible, but it's no "they domesticated X number of animals and crops by 8000 BCE and so had gotten immune to many diseases by year ...and so beat nearby hunter/gatherers...
"People of the same trade seldom meet together, even for merriment and diversion, but the conversation ends in a conspiracy against the public, or in some contrivance to raise prices. It is impossible indeed to prevent such meetings, by any law which either could be executed, or would be consistent with liberty or justice."
Adam Smith, in this quote, seems to be saying "monopolies and trusts are OK with me." Does anyone have a different interpretation? Please give a thoughtful response.
@newguy33X Yes, I agree with you! it's a warning.. A warning which I do not hear repeated by free-market advocates who use his name to bolster their credibility.
It is among the inferior rank of people [working class] that the scantiness of subsistence can set limits to the further multiplication of the human species and it can do so in no other way than destroying a great part of the children. -Adam Smith
and he believed that this was the 'hand of the market [god] meeting the requirements of suppy and demand. Do you really believe that such a system of economics is Moral, or want to follow such an elitist philosophy?
What about the middle east, for example. they are hardly progressive by any means. Forget focus, its the natural resources that gives them wealth beyond our western imaginations. Compared to their wealth ours is nothing.
@JackGriffin2 To trade you need something to trade with. With natural resources, it is yours for free, like the Arab world. With Japan, there is innovation, as long as they innovate they can trade. But look at their stress level on the society which is represented by their high suicide rates.
On the other hand, look at the middle east. They are lazy as hell, obnoxious and backward social values, but still rich. This is the difference.
@rao76 Natural resources may help but are not sufficient or even necessary for a country to be wealthy. And the natural resources do not even help if the country is not sufficiently advanced. Their are plenty of poor economies with money gushing from the ground and plenty of wealthy economies with few natural resources.
@JackGriffin2 Yes, but that is only the state of affairs as is today, and that is because of historical reasons, colonisations, world wars...there was a huge shift in wealth from one place to another. This is only temporary, you can see the balance setting back...its happening.
But what gives a people the ability to focus on these things? Obviously if you live in a god-forasken desert you don't have the time for such endeavors (you're just going to spend 24/7 scrounging around for food). It seems rather naive to utterly disconnect a society's natural setting from the equation...
The Wealth of Nations is much like The Origin of Species in the sense that they both laid the ground work for their respected fields (Economic theory and Evolutionary Biology), but since their creation much more research has been presented and much more is known today.

@xRA1D32x - Austrian economist are some of the most informed. As the likes of Peter Schiff have made rather apparent to those willing to pay attention.

@NUGNESS123 Also, you should really spend some time reading about G.K. Chesterton. It's quite possible that both you and Adam Smith are correct. Regulation that is sold to us as "reigning in" Big Business simply makes small businesses raise overhead and cede marketshare to the big boys.
The reality is that less Government means smaller businesses are more competitive, which both follows Adam Smith's philosophy and resolves the capitalist oligarchy of which you speak.
@MrWolfenstein81 "there shall be no gods before me" -god. quotes mean nothing, and they are not arguments, they are appeals to populous or appeal to authority if used as an argument.
funny, because unless you have the money to invest into your interests you're not going to be able to develop any of this "human ingenuity" you speak of. Every single thing has today been turned into a commodity for sale. How is a poor person supposed to develop any talents at all when they are struggling to feed themselves. Perhaps that's why the highest rates of innovation come from countries with large social programs. This channel is utter bullshit propaganda.
@Cubology Monetary Incentives destroy drive and ability when it comes to cognitive functions. Look up RSA animate "The Suprising Truth Behind What Motivates Us." People do things because they're interested in them. Why do you think people invest their own money to buy musical equipment or film equipment and become amazing at it with no incentive to make money off of it. Loads of people have hobbies, You don't need money to motivate.
@xRA1D32x The candle problem is a joke. 1) It assumes the market is completely random. 2) It actually shows that government incentives don't work either, 3) Business owners don't want to outright maximize pay, it's called the laws of supply and demand. 4) It didn't check for how people in their own fields do when incentized. (Ex: Cooks solve a cooking problem)(No one studies to solve the candle problem) 5) Averages might not matter in the market, it might only matter how long 1st place took.

@xRA1D32x The lesson of the Industrial Revolution. It is a counterexample to your statement that innovation comes from countries with large social programs. You seem to dismiss that example because it wasn't "modern times".
@JackGriffin2 The simple fact that human ingenuity exists in any system is not surprising at all; in fact that's what we humans are very good at. Yes, there were some great innovations during the industrial revolution, as well as during much of the history of the United States. However, when looking at the innovation rates (Patents per capita) of different countries it becomes clear that those with less income inequality have greater rates of innovation.
