As if Marx’s work doesn’t build from the work of previous economists INCLUDING Smith! Pure idealist nonsense but what else do you expect from liberals.

fuck i wish
You can tell none of them have ever read The Wealth of Nations, because they would’ve labelled Smith a dirty commie for some of his takes.
Adam Smith was a proto-Maoist in the landlord question :mao-shining:
Okay then I will go read the wealth of nations
But the mean rapacity, the monopolizing spirit of merchants and manufacturers, who neither are, nor ought to be, the rulers of mankind
Am I supposed to be supporting capitalism yet?
Do they forget that Das Capital is just a response to Wealth of Nations using it’s discoveries about the operations of capital and imperialism to form a contrast with Marx and Engels findings about the operations of labor and the colonized? I really don’t think any of these morons have read, or even skimmed either book.
