crapitalism 

Use of political favor, force, or position to benefit a for-profit business, but calling it "free-market". Similar to "mercantilism" from Colonial times, where the success of a business depended on the power of The Crown. Use of "crapitalism" is meant to be disparaging, but can also be used to show the difference between actual free market enterprises and those that depend on government support.
Dude A: "Those big Wall Street banks makin' all that smack when I ain't got a job is why capitalism sucks." Dude B: "Da big bankers work in crapitalism. They'd be out of business if it wasn't for all that help they get from The Man."

crapitalism 

quick-and-dirty uber-profits for the filthy stinking rich - and total crap for all the rest of us.
Here in the USA crapitalism has caused the world's largest gap between the super-rich lifestyles of the those at the top, and the steadily degenerating living conditions of the vast majority, while landfills continue to overfill with the broken, poorly-made junk that constitutes the "affordable" products for the masses.

Crapitalism 

Crapitalism is the evident failing of the capitalistic system. After excessive attempts to crapitize on consumer companies begin to make products that self destruct or break easily. To ensure adequate employment workers might take 2 years on a job that might be finished in as little as 6 monthes. Crapitalism is an indicator of the evolution of Capitalism to Imperialism this phase is commonly indicated by a loss of middle class and a greater divide between haves and have not. If the condition is untreated it leads to revolutions and civil unrest and forks into community based communism that seeks independence from breaucractical leeches.

Crapitalism inheirits the migration of capitalism to imperialism.
Damn crapitalism i just bought a sega pslazy8 and the game system self destructed.

Stupid crapitalism those workers spent 12 monthes fixing the road during lunch and traffic hours and now they have to dig it back up again and lay power lines.

Crapitalism 

Economic system that's doomed to abolish itself by its very nature. Forms a Darwinian free market in which monetary profit is the only objective. In essence: modern slavery.

Unscrupulous competition is the main drive behind said accumulation of money in which some will inevitably lose. Vital technological progress is accelerated and being utilized to increasingly replace human workers in order to cut the costs and maximize profits.

In this last stage, the bulk of the population for which those goods and services should have been produced in the first place is left on the streets without income and thus cannot purchase any of them. It's the war of everyone against everyone, in a battlefield of abundance. Finally, the system implodes.

Instead of taking advantage of technological progress, that could free everyone from the necessity to work, and reform the money system by granting everyone a basic income, or issue a new currency every year where all excess money not spend is deleted from the system - or by removing money altogether and let personal nano-factories provide all the things one needs - politicians and other influential mouthpieces, who have more than enough wealth, demand even more jobs.

This only shows that a crapitalist economy is not beneficial for humans in any way, as it does not serve humanity but rather that humanity serves a blind, abstract monster.
"They still believe that crapitalism is the zenith of human evolution."

Capitalization 

One of the most commonly misused aspects of basic grammar.

Usually taught in the first year of education, a capital letter is used at the start of a sentence, and for names and titles/headings. This includes the names of people, organizations, places, days and months, and (often forgotten) the name of a language, brand or ethnicity. There are a few other examples, which a quick Google search will explain. It is considered acceptable to use block capitals instead of italics to emphasize a specific word or point. It is retarded to use capitals for every word, or just your favorite words, or sporadically throughout a text.
Correct use of capitalization:

1. In other news, the Prime Minister of Sweden visited Washington today, and my tiny little nipples went to France.

2. My assignment is in on Tuesday, Peter. I am going to Wikipedia it so that I progress no further with my education because I prefer to go on Facebook, buy myself presents on eBay and watch Sons of Anarchy online :).

(note for titles: 'joining' words such as 'and', 'of' and 'the' don't need capital letters)

Incorrect use of capitalization:

1. Lame Facebook status: 'Just Remember You Are Always A Shining Star'

2. Person 1: 'JOHN ARE YOU GOING TO THE CINEMA TONIGHT?'
Person 2: 'Not if you ask me in caps lock... not cool man...'

3. 'Omg why aren't we Allowed to wear fake tan to school anymore? I like being orange!!!' (allowed did not require a capital letter for ANY REASON)
