Capital: A Critique of Political Economy

A book written by Karl Marx and published in 1867 that deals with the development of capitalism and its problems. It is generally highly admired for its foresight of how capitalism would eventually develop over time.

Note that Capital: A Critique of Political Economy is purely criticizing the status quo, predicting its development and pinpointing its problems, while the Manifesto of the Communist Party (or simply Communist Manifesto) offers possible solutions to these problems.
'Hey, I just read Capital: A Critique of Political Economy by Karl Marx. And I now believe that the only way to create a fair society is by overthrowing the bourgeoisie.'

A non-capital battlecruiser arrangement is a paradoxical or contradictory term which essentially defines names and words that sound like they're real together, but are actually not.
"An innocent perverted succubus lady."
"A non-capital battlecruiser."

The non-capital battlecruiser arrangement depicts "a non-capital battlecruiser" as a word that does not exist, despite it sounding like it does.

grab capitalism by the balls

(as a pun variation on the Ford F-150 commercial punch line 'grab life by the horns'), this is one of the many possible English translations of the Latin phrase carpe diem.
as to who may have first used the expression grab capitalism by the balls to translate the Latin phrase carpe diem, IMHO as a history major, I would probably have to say it would have been the 'founders' of modern Western WASP capitalism, people like Thomas Jefferson, John Locke and Thomas Hobbes.
