"It is not from the benevolence of the butcher, the brewer, or the baker, that we can expect our dinner, but from their regard to their own interest."

I concur, and in Christianity, their own interest is served by giving others a fair shake.

Who would give the butcher, brewer, or baker money to expand, if they suspected they were going to be cheated out of any profits?
