Crapitalism

An unsustainable system in which the Western 'Democracies' live under that are in the last throes of extinction using outdated unworkable methods of energy supply, natural resources exploitation and rigged-markets with fiat currencies pretending to be a free-market. The most unproductive of society 'make' the most money and those people that create real wealth, known as the working-poor are delegated to greater levels of debt. Thieving international Banksters are given the greatest rewards under a system of Crapitalism.

Crapitalism's educational systems are exclusive by being prohibitively expensive to keep brain-dead middle classes in work via their network of kakistocracy. Education is an almost useless and financially non-viable endeavour for entering the workforce to the lower classes, without a network of wealthy and well-connected cronies to hand them jobs and therefore becomes systemically pointless. Education becomes a right of passage to those that can afford it, but they are not actually qualified and are therefore unfit to make Capitalism function.

Crapitalistic ideas are kept alive by a monopolistic media which creates unbelievable propaganda to further this Zombie System, it only looks alive to the equally brain-dead supporters Sheeple of this Crapitalistic system as they are also robbed under the guise of a GFC which they cannot recognise as a Depression leading to the eventual total systemic collapse of Crapitalism and their own downfall.
I no longer recognise the system which we live under, it's a total mish-mash of lies, cheating, stealing and the rule of law has just become a joke. This is total Crapitalism.

I work 70 hours a week earning an average wage and living a very modest lifestyle and I still can't make ends meets. This has just become a bunch of Crapitalism.

We still rely on fossil fuels and and deadly nuclear power when solar power is the obvious answer, except under a system of Crapitalism.

capitalist pig

A term for a rich business tycoon who only cares about making more money. He doesn't care if he puts smaller stores out of business, doesn't care about the poor or middle class, and doesn't care very much about the customer. His business will usually sell overpriced products made of cheap plastic, and the customer support will usually be outsourced if there's any customer support in the first place. Similar to the phrase "miser", or "cheapskate", but more applicable to people who not only horde money, but keep expanding their businesses even when they have more than enough money.
That capitalist pig took all the business. Soon we'll have to sell our shop and move away.

Vulture capitalist

Someone who is trying to buy a company when the company has gone bust, or is expected to (called a vulture because the company is dead or dying).
The vulture capitalists had been circling the company for some time, waiting for it to call in the administrators.

late-stage capitalism

We have reached late-stage capitalism. This is the era where businesses, investors and even the layperson will try everything they possibly can to capitalize on literally anything and every situation. The increasingly diverse stock industry and the booming crypto mining industry can be seen as one of the many aspects of late-stage capitalism. There is no single way to define late-stage capitalism, as the effects are most often seen on a micro scale and the scope is very broad as a result of the plethora of industries.

Some of the various examples of late-stage capitalism could include, but are not limited to: profiting off of your attractive physique, selling your personal data, selling your poop, dropshipping, house flipping, game companies making every single game pay-to-win, news corporations putting paywalls on their news sites, smartphone companies removing the headphone jack to save money, paying people to say positive affirmations, etc etc.

Essentially, it is capitalism but 10x more savage.
Thanks to the diverse range of markets, Jane was able to profit immensely from selling her bathwater, her used underwear, her poop, her sweat, her private browsing data, how many miles she walked, her emotions, her voice, and even her hair. Likewise, capitalists continue to venture into turning the most ordinary things into profitable commodities, while companies have lowered their standards to cut corners in every way possible to save money. This is late-stage capitalism in a nutshell.
