Adam Smith, known as the "Father of Capitalism," argued in his book "The Wealth of Nations" that fair prices for goods are determined through a free market system driven by supply and demand. He believed that competition among producers would lead to lower prices and better quality, while minimal government intervention would allow the marketplace to function effectively. His concepts laid the groundwork for the modern understanding of capitalist economies.
