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."

crapsterpiece

A work of art that goes so far beyond bad, it is not redeemable even through the power of ridicule.

Mariah Carey's film debut, "Glitter," was a monumental crapsterpiece.

Crapital One

The other name for Capital One. A bank holding company with a multitude of problems, such as:

- Their noisy slogan "What's in your Wallet?"
- Sending you spam mail for credit card offers every day
- Closing your account for requesting an unjust fee to be removed
- Misleading you to pay extra for services
- Automated dialing to your phone in violation of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act of 1991
- Randomly visiting you at home or your employer

Crapital One is something not to be trusted.

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.

Smash crapitalism!

Crapstep

The world's most horrendous music since disco. I believe it is created by allowing a mongoloid to mix D+B and Jungle, with some robotic nonsense on the side. Crapstep aka Dubstep is the single worst sound that has ever been created by man.

WUB WUB WUB WUB... That's not music that's Crapstep
