Well, in the purest sense of Capitalism, the government's sole role is to enforce private property rights for property owners. That's it. It does not have to, for example, determine equality or "justice", unless and only unless, justice is meted only in the context of property right enforcement. Notions of constitutionality, "natural" or "human" rights, "general welfare" -- hell even "common defense" -- are simply theft by government gunpoint. That's the leanest, strictest, "aspie"-est role of government that I've seen. We don't need anything: An army, navy, NIH, IRS, Student Aid, welfare, SS, Medicare. We need nothing but the government to ensure that what I make I can keep and what I do with it is my business. Everything else, and I mean all of it, as cute and as cuddly and toothless and gross and poor and pathetic, can fall where it may. In this situation, "ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country" is tantamount to treason, if and only if we lived in a pure capitalistic society. Any disputes to the above are the very first that I've heard of and is not pure capitalism.
