Liberty is enjoyed by those who control the profit from property and labor. If someone else controls your profit, then they also possess and enjoy your liberty. Your profit is that which you earn by producing more than you consume.
Capitalism employs the checks and balances of scarcity, labor and property to allocate resources and social authority to the most efficient producers and organizers of production.
Capitalism does not exist in a system that confiscates profit from producers, to reallocate to capable non-producers and those benefiting from favored business license. Such a system is socialist, which is marketed as capitalism to the masses, in order to march quietly toward a totalitarian system of government.
Costless money transfers production, labor, property and life savings from the working people into the hands of a privileged class. This theft must end if we are to have a future hope of liberty and justice for all. There is a solution. Learn it, speak it and pursue it with all passion and great haste. -- Shane Coley
