Millions of us consider ourselves "capitalists" in that we own businesses and hire people. We do all the obvious things that "capitalists" do. However, very few of us hire lobbyists and set up our private tax exempt foundations to hide our money. Very few of us "capitalists" use the granting power of tax exempt foundations to "so alter life in the United States" by giving millions to certain groups (mostly leftists) to go out into the political world to shake things up. Very few of us capitalists reap the benefits of the "shaking up." Very few of us "capitalists" engage in political stratagems such as getting laws passed in Congress that give us monopoly control over certain industries. Very few of us "capitalists" desire to acquire "granting power" to help us "alter life" in our favor.This type of "capitalism" has been described as "crony capitalism, but it really isn't capitalism as much as it is a perversion of capitalism.
CAPITAL: THE MEANS OF PRODUCTION. Capitalism is a derivative of capital therefore anyone person who uses "capital" is by definition a capitalist.
In essence we either have honest people or you have dishonest people using an economic system that is inescapably capitalistic.
Even if a person tried to escape the capitalist world by living in a cave with little or no contact with the outside world that person would still need capital to survive. They would have to beg for food using their wits to acquire food. In this case isn't the ability to use their wits a form of capital? After all a person's talents can get him either pocket change from a stranger or a major recording studio recording contract.
They can steal food or grow it or hunt for it. If they grow it or hunt for it they'll need tools to help them acquire it. Any implement, even a crudely made hoe or hunting tool, is something that provides a person with the potential to eat or to make a living by using these tools. Tools are "capital." We can't eat these tools but we use them to get us something to eat. Therefore a simply-made spear or a crudely-made bow and arrow are also "capital." These tools are the “means of production.” In other words, CAPITAL.
Our stomach is only so big and can hold only so much food at any one time. But our eyes are sometimes bigger than other people's bellies and some folks want to acquire more and more. There isn't anything wrong with that except when perverted capitalists use people as capital for their own personal gain and satisfaction. Perverted capitalists do it out of hatred and from their evil nature to hate human beings. Therefore, it was for this very reason that the Founding Fathers crafted a system of economics (based on Adam Smith’s model) that the least amount of government interference in the market is best.
The less government there is in a particular society the better since government is nothing but a tool of people in society to keep others from stealing your capital! And since man is in his heart evil and since we don't know which one of us is the most evil, the Founders built checks and balances into our republican form of government to trip up dishonest and evil men from using government for their own benefit instead of for the "general welfare" of society. In other words the welfare of society is not to give people others' capital as it is to establish a uniform governmental system so that the general society benefits from living in an honest system. People can then work and be assured that they can keep the fruits of their labor and not have it stolen from their pockets and savings by thievery fashioned in "welfare" programs" or via thievery through inflation which devalues the money we earn or have set aside as capital formation.
Sadly some people don't like to work and some even secretly yearn to be a slave of the state. For these people who have sufficiently been propagandized by those who wish to "so alter life in the United States" from free markets to controlled markets, there is ObamaCare waiting to enslave them. For a time these folks will benefit from someone else’s labor and “capital,” but the time will come when the managers of this fraudulent system will decide the time has come to ration their healthcare and only keep those who best serve the needs of the perverse capitalist system called SOCIALISM.

Monopoly capitalism goes by many names. The most common forms have been and are:
State socialism (fascism)
International socialism (communism)
National socialism (Nazism)
Fabian socialism as practiced in England.
I for one don't wish to be a slave to the state or to crony capitalism. And for those who also don’t wish to be a cog in a socialist machine, please go here to get ObamaCare voided and nullified: Choose Freedom. Stop ObamaCare

In a free market capitalist society one does not have to be a so-called successful man. Society's pressures drive certain people to do that. In a productive free market economy there are many wonderful benefits for everyone. The spill-over or excess of goods and jobs from those who become productive giants keeps food on the table and a roof over everyone’s head. A free market system based on a republican model protects our property and keeps "crony capitalism" at a bare minimum. But even free markets, based on a republican form of government, is not sufficient to keep it going. It requires that people be moral and exercise internal restraints to govern themselves. Without a moral people no system, no matter how wonderful, will collapse since honesty in commerce is a vital part of supplying goods and services to consumers. In turn the entire system depends upon honest businessmen and an honest government.
Americans need an honest court system and a money system that is the people’s money system. The job of government is to protect the value of the medium of exchange - money- by keeping it out of the hands of cartelists by denying the monopoly bankers a banking system from which to wage war against the people.
If tomorrow people began to be truthful half of the world’s problems would disappear.
