“There are many phrases of Adam Smith that are well worth echoing today, and one of the most significant is this: ‘The end of all production is consumption.’ It is not to create jobs.

The aim of production is not to give people work to do; it is to produce goods and services that people will freely buy because they help improve their lives.” (10/30/26)
