Adam Smith’s critique would address marcantilism’s reliance on government intervention which creates artificial suppression of the “invisible hand” of the market. This increases inefficiency and reduces innovation + competition. Shorthand would be a short term increase in win/lose deals vs win/win deals, and long term a problem with misallocation of resources.
