Capitalism

A very flawed economic system in which the big bad businesses and the greedy entrepreneurs own everybody’s ass and they can let you starve. It is referred to by some as the most free economic system. To the contrary, man is not free if he is dead, and capitalism lets the man starve to death.
Me: “A very flawed economic system in which the big bad businesses and the greedy entrepreneurs own everybody’s ass and they can let you starve. It is referred to by some as the most free economic system. To the contrary, man is not free if he is dead, and capitalism lets the man starve to death.”

Where we rely on each other, but only think about ourselves.
"Here in America, we define freedom as 'living paycheck to paycheck,' ... cause ya know,.... capitalism."

Boy at family dinner: Mother, boys in my school are talking about something called Capitalism.
Mother at a family dinner: Don't listen to them. They don't know what they are talking about, you have work in the potato field today by the way.

Capitalism is the Corporatization and the monopolization of the Laissez-faire free market economy.
Examples of Capitalism are the economies of both the United States and China. Which are effectively economies which have been completely corporatized and monopolised by a small elitist group. China the state and the United States the Corporate elite.

Capitalism

Share definition
The political concept where each individual person is born (life) free (liberty). Thus the free individual has sole rights of self (property) and self-determination to remain free (pursuit of happiness).
The means of doing this is a peaceful participation in exchanging of goods and services with other individuals (market), who are also respected as free men, in a contract called society.

If everyone recognized the simplicity of these principles, a state would not be needed, but alas, for those who hate freedom, deny private ownership, or operate on pure greed at the expense of others' (nullifying their freedom), a limited state/government is a necessary evil to protect the individual's life, liberty, and pursuits of happiness.

This is Capitalism. There is no such thing as non-Capitalist economies, non-Capitalist economies like communism are merely state or collective capitalism.

So, in summary, there is either individual Capitalism (stated above) or collective/state capitalism (the numerous communism, socialism, monarchism, oligarchy variations).
