An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations

The book offers one of the first accounts of what builds nations' wealth. It has become a fundamental work in classical economics, and has been described as "the first formulation of a comprehensive system of political economy". Reflecting upon economics at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, Smith addresses topics such as the division of labour, productivity, and free markets.

The Wealth of Nations was the product of seventeen years of notes and earlier studies, as well as an observation of conversation among economists of the time (like Nicholas Magens) concerning economic and societal conditions during the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, and it took Smith some ten years to produce. The result was a treatise which sought to offer a practical application for reformed economic theory to replace the mercantilist and physiocratic economic theories that were becoming less relevant in the time of industrial progress and innovation. It provided the foundation for economists, politicians, mathematicians, and thinkers of all fields to build upon. Irrespective of historical influence, The Wealth of Nations represented a clear paradigm shift in the field of economics, comparable to what Immanuel Kant's Critique of Pure Reason was for philosophy.

Five editions of The Wealth of Nations were published during Smith's lifetime: in 1776, 1778, 1784, 1786 and 1789. Numerous editions appeared after Smith's death in 1790. To better understand the evolution of the work under Smith's hand, a team led by Edwin Cannan collated the first five editions. The differences were published along with an edited sixth edition in 1904. They found minor but numerous differences (including the addition of many footnotes) between the first and the second editions; the differences between the second and third editions are major. In 1784, Smith annexed these first two editions with the publication of Additions and Corrections to the First and Second Editions of Dr. Adam Smith's Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations, and he also had published the three-volume third edition of the Wealth of Nations, which incorporated Additions and Corrections and, for the first time, an index. Among other things, the Additions and Corrections included entirely new sections, particularly to book 4, chapters 4 and 5, and to book 5, chapter 1, as well as an additional chapter (8), "Conclusion of the Mercantile System", in book 4.

The fourth edition, published in 1786, had only slight differences from the third edition, and Smith himself says in the Advertisement at the beginning of the book, "I have made no alterations of any kind." Finally, Cannan notes only trivial differences between the fourth and fifth editions—a set of misprints being removed from the fourth and a different set of misprints being introduced.

How an Economy Grows and Why It Doesn't

"Irwin A. Schiff, America's leading expert on the Federal Income Tax, presents economics in his thoroughly informative, yet always entertaining manner; proving that the only thing -dismal- about the "dismal science" must be those who normally teach and write about it. Without a doubt, anyone reading Schiff's hilarious allegory will have a far better understanding of economics than many who have pursued the subject full time at our nation's universities."

A new storm brewing in Residential RE. BlackRock and Vanguard appear to be unleashing a new scheme to push more owners out of homes so they can own them and rent them back to the previous owners or deeper pockets. They own big stakes in the biggest insurers. Many insurers have cancelled existing policies and stopped writing new ones in large geographic areas. Prices for policies are skyrocketing by hundreds of percent in many cases.

Mortgages REQUIRE the homeowner to carry property insurance as a condition of holding a mortgage. If your coverage lapses, the mortgage holder finds this out quickly and either buys lender-placed coverage at your expense that covers only the bank's interest in the event of a loss. In many cases they are not doing this at all but going straight to foreclosing on the mortgage and will end up taking the property.

People living in paid-off condos and HOA properties are getting HOA insurance costs passed on to them, and face losing their PAID OFF property by this scheme.

If you OWN property, pay careful attention to your insurance. If you're looking to BUY property, this is another reason to wait till a wave of insurance-driven foreclosures hits the market, and try to beat BlackRock at their game buying them up at a deep discount. Be sure to price insurance into your investments carefully, even if you're going in with all cash!
