Okay, I gotta catch on these....
Commerce: The prosperity of commerce is now perceived and acknowledged by all enlightened statesmen to be the most useful as well as the most productive source of national wealth, and has accordingly become a primary object of its political cares. - Alexander Hamilton, Federalist No. 12, 1787
Hamilton's right there; the best way for a country to prosper is to unleash the economic commerce engine to full blast and then, after making sure there's a fair system of laws/regulations, getting well the hell outta' the way.
