I think you misunderstand capitalism and its role in a modern society. Capitalism can never be used to run a state or a nation. It has no political structure in its pure form. Capitalism is the engine in a society. Entrepreneurs create companies, which create jobs, which creates a market etc etc. From the economical heart created, the state takes a part of its revenue to protect or oppress it.Originally Posted by KafirChobee
Politic or even simplier, rulers, feed from the capitalism and try to keep it in a desired direction.
A capitalist doesn't understand social responsibility, environment or human rights. He follow the rules given to him and tries to create as much profit as possible. If the rules changes, so does he. If he comes in to monopoly, he will use this to his own benefits and nobody should expect anything else.
The capitalist is being controlled through legislation and law enforcement. If it's to hard, he leaves, if it's to soft, he abuse his role. Very simple actually.
