Adam Smith is remembered as the father of modern economics, but the real lesson is much bigger than markets. He warned against the “man of system,” the arrogant planner who believes society can be moved around like pieces on a chessboard. In this Political Psycho episode, we break down ten enduring lessons from Adam Smith and why they still expose the failures of Washington, global planners, economic centralization, crony capitalism, fake compassion, and the control-freak class.

This is not a dusty economics lecture. This is a 250-year-old warning shot fired directly into the face of modern power.
