Document Summary
Understand one"s purpose, one must understand the bible. If you specialize, you can be more productive. Really good at something so you can do it efficiently. Not wondering around between one job and another. Improving the ways in which things are done. The larger the market, the greater are the possibilities to specialize. Distinguish this from what we call a chicago"s school of economy. Any policy doing this is a good policy. In a probably functioning capitalist society, it should be contractual and give people human dignity. Making a distinction between stationary and progressive societies. Capitalists conspire against the public and everything should be done to stop them. Capitalists want special favours from the state because they don"t want to work hard. Low levels of property and high wages are ideal. Constant change, competition, if you give monopoly, then prices will stay high. Merchants coming together conspire to destroy the common good.
