Super capitalism

While in normal capitalism a few fat cats sit at the top, super capitalism is so invested in the private entreprise that every single individual collectively owns a portion of the business, in order to prevent the interference of private ownership with inelastic market forces such as health care or public transportation.

Super Capitalism

Like normal capitalism, but SUPER.

While in regular capitalism anybody could become rich, in SUPER capitalism EVERYBODY can get rich because private ownership has been SUPERfied so much that everybody privately owns part of the business they work at.
"Hey, doesn't this SUPER Capitalism thing sound a bit like Market Socialism?"
"Nah, socialism means Hitler."

Crony Capitalism

n. Crony capitalism is a colloquial term describing a "market economy" in which success in business depends on close relationships between business people and government officials. It may be exhibited by favoritism to connected businesses in the distribution of legal permits, government grants, special tax breaks, and so forth. This favoritism is rewarded by campaign contributions or outright kickbacks to politicians or their supporters. As such, it creates an oxymoron of sorts, in that success of a business in a free market (capitalism) does not depend on free-market forces. It is also a obvious source of corruption of both business and government.
In the United States, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are examples of Crony Capitalism. Government backing let Fannie and Freddie dominate mortgage underwriting. The politicians created the mortgage giants, which then returned some of the profits to the politicians - sometimes directly, as campaign funds; sometimes as "contributions" to favored constituents.
