Extreme-right dictatorship in which power is controlled by the bourgeoisie, where the rich get richer, the poor stay poor the same way or get poorer, a part of the middle class getting rich and another part of the middle class getting poorer. Killed 58 million people.

Get the Cordaniy, Capitalmug. (as a pun/ variation on the Ford F-150 commercial punch line 'grab life by the horns'): 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, I would probably have to say it would have been the 'founders' of modern WASP capitalism, people like John Locke or Thomas Hobbes.

Get the Social Capital Distributionmug. An inordinately American person, a "Capital A American". Usually used in a derogatory manner.
If you meet one outside the US, you might think they're doing a grotesque, almost offensive caricature of Americans, but no, turns out some yanks really are like that.

- I met Keithrynnn yesterday, she wouldn't shut up about her therapist
- Come on man, that's not cool, there's nothing wrong with going to therapy
- I know, but she kept saying these things that most children already know, as if they require some kind of deep thought and understanding...
- Oh, is she American?
- Yeah, a real Capital A

Get the Capital Amug. That Angela Rayner, I've heard she's a big Maggie Thatcher fan, being particularly impressed with Maggie's 1980 Housing Act, which enabled council house tenants to buy (and sell) their council house. Hang on, I hear Rayner has not only broken electoral law by saying she is registered as living at said council house, but is in fact living down the road with husband and kids. She has also failed to pay capital gains tax on the profit made when she sold the council house.
On well, good on her! Hold on a minute, what's her role in the current Labour government - Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government - NO !!!!! You've got to be pulling my plonker!

Get the Capital Gains Taxmug. When you are marking someone’s English you would say ‘Great use of capital letters!’ Instead of ‘great use of vocabulary!’
