An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations (generally referred to by the short title The Wealth of Nations) is the masterpiece of the Scottish economist and moral philosopher Adam Smith. It was first published in 1776. It is an account of economics at the dawn of the Industrial Revolution, as well as a rhetorical piece written for the generally educated individual of the 18th century - advocating a free market economy as more productive and more beneficial to society. The book is often considered to have laid the basic groundwork for modern economic theory. From Wikipedia under the

I'm trying to read the Wealth of Nations and the pence and pound sterling currency stuff is killing me. Is there an easy way to understand the relationship between them and the USD($)? Asked by paco - Fri Aug 24 02:02:16 2007 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. one pence=one penny U.S. l0pence or 10p so that you can see 100p =one British pound which is not the same as one US dollar.

The dollar has lost over 50% of its value in the last few months,indicating our debtor nation status. Clear as mud, hey mate?

Why else would the Senate under both Bill Clinton and George Bush, and controlled by either party refuse to ratify it? If for no other reason it would choke the expansion of the Chinese economy which is both directly and indirectly funding our elections this year.
