My peeve, well one of many, is how the writing of Adam Smith has been peverted for this propoganda. Smith believed that while profit incentive was needed for innovation, that as a business or industry matured, profits would decrease and wages would rise. The stock market has made that impossible. Smith's view of a socially responsible capitalism has also been made impossible by globalization and the search for cheap labor. Capitalism can really only work if geographic areas trade with each other but basic goods are made at home.Then there is the bullshit of deregulation when in fact there are no free markets but rather laws written by lobbyists to kill competition.
