[the invisib1e hand]

It was one of the first attempts of his and Marx's socialism to insert government into natural human transaction and communication.

As I understand it, marx was prescient about what perversities would abound when the stewards of the free mareket were disabused of their moral consciences. Hence the necessity to secularize the society of their moral and religious foes in the West.

And guess what? He was right.
