One tenet Mr. Smith offered that is never pointed to by vulture-capitalists is that those who control capital have responsibility to a community's welfare, the fair and decent treatment of workers, and shared stewardship of that community.

Seems that Mr. Smith appreciated the opportunity for more persons to have control of the monetary system besides inbred royals, but with that comes responsibility.

Smith actually believed in Ethics. Something that no capitalist in 2023 adheres to. It is all about accumulation and greed. Just looking at bankers bonuses tells the story.
