Capitalism is the separation of state and economy. When governments set interest rates, print money, tax people and recruit through special interest, it's Corporatism.
- ThomPete 12y agoWhich basically just means that instead of a state having the physical power someone/something else will. Again you can't define your way out of this.
- vegancap 12y agoHaha oh I can. So do you also make the argument that a river is and evil Capitalist because it deprives a drowning man of oxygen? A salt plain has power over a dying mammal that can't find food. Is that also evil Capitalism? No. Capitalism is about best dealing with the fact that the universe owes us absolutely nothing and that the only consolation for that is freedom, voluntary association and opportunity. You can't diminish all forms of 'power' because it's within nature itself.
- gress 12y agoNope. You're describing a specific form of libertarianism.
