Very few people use the term 'capitalism' correctly, both on the left and the right. Very few. For instance, many people think it's simply the act of making a profit. Self employed people and people who run small businesses will often proudly (and stupidly) claim to be capitalists when in reality they are likely not at all. There are many organizational structures that are for-profit that are in no way 'capitalism'.
