Last time I ever come to your side in an argument.
No, if you look it up, Adam Smith believed strongly in government oversight.
It's in Thom Hartmann's book Screwed. You'd like it, he mostly talks about failed Reaganomics, and getting back to a strong middle class through unionization, and reversing Reagan's tax cuts. A lotto #'s in that book.
