Hey, I know that you’re not going to open this and you probably hate me, but I wanted to say sorry for being a bad friend and for always being a [blank] to you.

Answer: Adam Smith would have disagreed with this statement. He believed government should not regulate the economy or control trade.
Explanation:
Even though Adam Smith believed that the government had a role to play in the economy, he believed that this role should be limited to National defense, upholding civil law and providing public services like education. 
He would therefore be against the government regulating trade agreements that allow the passage of goods and services into and out of the country. Karl Marx and John Maynard Keynes on the other hand, advocated for government intervention, albeit in varying quantities.
