&gt; We are Not in a capitalist society.<p>You can&#x27;t be more wrong. The term capitalism was pretty much coined by Marx to describe the system he lived in (where production capital is mostly privately owned and labor is a commodity). The definition still holds true today. Maybe you can call today corporatism on top of that, but then the late 19th century was ruled by corporations more than today...<p>I frankly don&#x27;t understand this line of reasoning. Why don&#x27;t you just accept the name capitalism for what it really is, why the need to &quot;own&quot; the term and twist its original meaning? We have plenty of perfectly good names for system you probably describe, such as libertarianism or anarchocapitalism or minarchism or propertarianism... It seems that you&#x27;re just unwilling to accept that free markets simply tend to being not free as capital accumulates.
