 1.Law of supply & demand =  Enough goods are produced at the lowest possible price to meet demand 2.Law of self-interest =  People work for their own good 3.Law of competition =  Competition forces people to make a better product Smith’s 3 natural laws of economics

  Capitalism – an economic system in which the factors of production are PRIVATELY owned & money is invested back into the business to make a larger profit  Helped spread the “industrial revolution” The Economists of Capitalism

  Others believe governments should intervene  The wealthy should help to improve lives of the poor  Utilitarianism: (John Stuart Mill)  People should judge ideas, institutions, & actions on the basis of their utility or usefulness  Basically – “The greatest good for the greatest number” (not always morally right) The Rise of Socialism

 John Stuart Mill  Slightly regulated economics will lead to a more EQUAL DIVISION OF PROFITS  Do away with great differences in wealth  Pushed for reform in education & prisons

  Unions – Voluntary labor associations  Unionization:  Bargained for better working conditions & pay  If refused they would go on strike (refuse to work)  skilled workers lead the charge – (not as easily replaced)  Britain briefly outlaws unions (troublesome to the economy) Labor Unions & Reform Laws
