Talk:Ancient economic thought

message: "Economics of Mahavira is still unknown for the world. It has all the necessary components to solve economics problems as well as to restore world peace. His economics includes both materialism and spiritualism. It is necessary for us to understand his principles and put them into practice."
This seems a bit odd, should wiki be advocating that we practice the economic teachings of Mahavira?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.155.193.127 (talk) 13:38, 22 February 2013 (UTC)

message: Someone should go through the first paragraph of "Capitalist market economy" and make sure it jives with the sources noted.  I checked for any reference to credit cards in "Islam, the Mediterranean and the Rise of Capitalism" which is cited here, and it doesn't talk about credit cards at all.  I'm worried the other items listed here also came out of thin air 24.9.165.170 (talk) 19:22, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

message: I have fuzzy memory of seeing a quote from some ancient Chinese person which echoed remarkably closely Adam Smith's, "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 would love it if someone can pull up information on that and make it less fuzzy. Cretog8 (talk)  —Preceding comment was added at 20:39, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

message: "In Institutiones, the principle of just trade is stated as "tantum bona valent, quantum vendi possunt" ("goods are worth as much as they can be sold for").[43]"
This quote doesn't seem to exist in either the Latin edition or the English. 
https://www.gutenberg.org/files/5983/5983-h/5983-h.htm#link2H_4_0063  The English edition.
http://www.thelatinlibrary.com/justinian/institutes3.shtml  The Latin edition. 
Unless the Latin is wrong or Chrome's ctrl + F function failed me, at no point does the phrase occur. For now, I'm going to remove this quote, but if anyone finds it, please let me know (I really would love to be corrected on this - it fits my general ideas for the history of price very well).
