Huh? The free market IS capitalism. That's the definition of
capitalism.

Close.

I am being lazy, today. So:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_market

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capitalism

The two are often closely linked. However, in today's society, and the rampant
advent of socialistic/Marxist re-definition, it is prudent to differentiate
between the two as a means to divide and conquer the commie hoard.

They will invariably come back to "government must control everything". Yet,
when asked about their own use of capitalism, after they rant about the evils
it presents, they will insist that they are above the common fray and need not
be subject to supervision, for, after all, they are one of the fold and know
what is best for themselves and everyone else. Rules need not apply, if you will.

Compromise and a happy medium is utter BS with any and all of these types. It is
a one way street that the common man loses on every time they win an inch. Of course
they will mock you. As little as 1998 some of my progressive friends laughed at me
and my warnings of "give an inch and it shall not be given back", and went on about
the foolishness of arguing the "slippery slope". I don't associate with them that
much anymore, and I am certain they are either blind or willfully ignorant on how
far down our country has slid.

Of course, they could just be ****ing stupid. Worse, they cherish the thought in
a masochistic bent.
