Derived from French, literally translating to 'let (them) do', combining the verbs laisser ('to let' or 'to leave') and faire ('to do' or 'to make'). The phrase originated in the 18th century among the Physiocrats as an economic doctrine advocating for minimal governmental intervention in economic affairs, later broadening in general English usage to describe any policy or attitude of non-interference.
