Answer: the difference is a concept of human nature. Adam Smith´s philosophy is based on assumption of competitiveness. People are competitive, they comptete, there is a rivalry between them. All that presupposes individualism, autonomy, initiative, free spirit. Socialism lacks that. Socialism constitutes another sort of onesidedness: its point of departure is that people are good, like to collaborate and share. That is why socialism wants to eliminate all inequalities (that is why it was and perhaps still is attractive).

No because they believed that they had more power and were more fit for society. Many followed the idea of Social Darwinism or "Survival of the fittest" meaning those cut out for society would live and those not would perish. Those who were rich found them selves higher up in class and deemed themselves superior.
