a successful system where you have to work hard to get lots money
a system that says the customer is right (except Karens) if they lose customers they are out of business
if you like one product that is because of capitalism
if you say capitalism is greedy that is crony capitalism (fake capitalism)

1. The economic system of 99% of the world.
2. The reason you can drive Porsches and Lamborghinis instead of rusty pieces of shit.
3. The only way to be truly individualistic without having to worry about having your organs being cooked on a frying pan tomorrow or the government breaking down your doors and killing your entire family.
4. The only economic system where you have an opportunity to be wealthy instead of shit poor like the rest of your neighbors.
5. The only economic system where society, technology, and the ingenuity advances as a whole.

Socialists like to believe that everyone will do their civic duty and contribute to society, and the people who do not will be punished by people as a whole. But what they don't understand is that humanity will always be greedy, and while they will for a time happily work themselves to death for "society," they will eventually disregard their duties and not work unless compensation is involved.
Communists like to believe that with the trusty government watching their back, nothing will happen to them. But what they don't realize is that one word to come out at the wrong place at the wrong time will get them in prison and beaten and whipped.
Anarchists like to believe that with no government watching their backs, everybody will do the right thing. But what they don't understand is that humanity is a violent species (like all animals) and without a set of governing laws or any set jobs, then we will revert to our prehistoric state and every idea humanity has ever thought of will just be thrown out the window.
Every single economic/governing system mentioned here is a leech of capitalism.

Start-up and later stage funding provided to companies with potential for great gain or risk is typically referred to as venture capitalism. 'Denture Capitalism' captures the fact that venture capitalism is typically funded by elderly plutocrats.
'Sources report that Denture Capitalism kingpin Warren Buffett's interest in Mr. Vokonvov's innovative search engine has helped attract ample funding to the start-up.'
