Stockholder wealth maximization is a long-run goal. Companies, and consequently the stockholders, prosper by management making decisions that will produce long-term earnings increases. Actions that are continually shortsighted often "catch up" with a firm and, as a result, it may find itself unable to compete effectively against its competitors. There has been much criticism in recent years that U.S. firms are too short-run profit-oriented. A prime example is the U.S. auto industry, which has been accused of continuing to build large "gas guzzler" automobiles because they had higher profit margins rather than retooling for smaller, more fuel-efficient models.

In what ways was Adam Smith 'pro-business'?
Adam Smith was pro-capitalism. Google "Wealth of Nations", a book by Smith which may answer some questions.
Adam Smith was an economist who embraced the idea of the "invisible hand" of competition as being the best manner in which to assure the best quality goods at the best prices. Short example, suppose you are the only hat maker in a small town. Your hats are poorly made and over-priced, but you are the only hat maker in town. Suddenly one day another hat maker opens up shop in the town and begins turning out better quality hats than yours, and sells them at a lower price. You now have only two options. You can match his quality and price, or you can go out of business. That is Adam Smith's "invisible hand" of competition at work.

It is reported that the beloved comedy actor Adam Hubert Heartwell Sandler passed away late last night after a long, yet secretive, battle with the common cold. His maid, Maria Escobar stated that "he was sneezing all over the place. Many mourn the loss of the successful comedian by photographing thermaces with the caption #WeStandWithTheSandlers and #FightTheCommonCold. This is in reference to Sandler's most recent, and last, role in the popular Netfilx comedy "Hubie Halloween". Many have donated to some charities devoted to curing the common cold, and you should consider doing so as well. Adam Sandler will always be remembered as one of the greatest comics of our generation. RIP.

He believed in God, not as far fetched as it sounds, one of the principle things which divided Jefferson from Abigail in particular, was the fact that he did not. Adams and Jefferson debated this issue many times, since Adams believed a belief in God essential to a moral nation.
"The wooden walls shall stand", a quote from classical Greece about the prophecy of the Delphic oracle, which meant that it was the wooden ships, of the navy which would defeat the Persians. This was how it played out in the second Peloponnesian war. Adams believed our Navy was the essential defense needed for our liberty. The Navy will protect our commerce, and defend our shores against attack from overseas.
He believed passionately in Liberty.
How about "One nation, under God, with Liberty and Justice for all". Under God wasn't added to the Pledge of Allegiance until the 1950s, but Adams would certainly have supported its inclusion as a necessary part of our foundation.
Adams followed a pattern President Washington had set. Washington had accepted a treaty which was very unpopular, to avoid war with Britain. Adams, in spite of the fact that Tallyrand and his three ministers (Messrs. X, Y, and Z) had demanded a bribe for our mission to France to be able to speak about a treaty, secured a treaty that kept us from war with the French, one which Hamilton was preparing for, and one which George Washington had been commissioned a Lieutenant General, our first three star general, before his death in December 1799.
He also created our Navy. We don't currently have an active ship of the line christened for John Adams, but we have had two different vessels named for him in our history.

Pausanias said that Thucydides was murdered on his way back to Athens. Many doubt this account, seeing evidence to suggest he lived as late as 397 BC. Plutarch claims that his remains were returned to Athens and placed in Cimon's family vault.
