It's less than two and a half centuries since Adam Smith examined a new social order that had only begun germination an equal span before.

His conclusions about the benefits of free people trading have stood every test. The alternatives haven't.

It seems a reasonable assumption that within a few centuries our species will have dumped the trash and adopted a libertarian/conservative bent.

The moral disease "liberal/progressive" represents may still be around but will hopefully be contained. Kind of like gonorrhea.

I miss Uncle Milty. He could explain capitalism in a way like few others. The world needs a few clear thinkers like Milton Friedman, Adam Smith, etc.
