• Mr. Smith, your 'invisible hand' is a powerful metaphor, but how do you reconcile it with the potential for market failures and the need for some regulation?
• You championed the division of labor, yet some argue it leads to alienation and deskilling. How would you respond to these concerns?
• In 'The Theory of Moral Sentiments,' you discuss sympathy as a foundation of morality. How does this concept interact with the self-interest you emphasize in 'The Wealth of Nations'?
• If you could revisit our modern economic landscape, what aspects would most surprise you, and what advice would you offer based on your principles?
• Your work has been interpreted in many ways, some supporting laissez-faire capitalism and others advocating for more government intervention. How do you feel about these diverse interpretations of your ideas?
