While the Mercantilists were more concerned in erecting Customs barriers and closing the country, so as to limit the outward flow of money and increase the national prosperity by keeping the money in the country, the Physiocrats came to the opposite conclusion. According to them, free export and import from one country to another was the very thing to enhance the exploitation of the soil over the whole Earth, and accordingly, the prosperity of every single country.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"I.

Haben die Merkantilisten mehr darauf gesehen, Zölle aufzurichten, die Länder nach außen abzuschließen, damit der Geldabfluß nicht zu groß ist und der Volkswohlstand erhöht wird durch das Zusammenhalten des Geldes im Lande, so kamen die Physiokraten zu der entgegengesetzten Anschauung, daß gerade, wenn man frei von einem Lande in das andere aus- und einführt, die Kraft in der Ausnützung des Bodens über die ganze Erde hin erhöht wird, und damit auch der Wohlstand des einzelnen Landes.
