an economic and political system in which a country's trade and industry are controlled by private owners for profit, rather than by the state.
Now that we know the definition of it what does it mean? In today's world the real definition of capitalism is "I will do whatever it take to make sure that my stock, my company, and my bank account will continue to grow until I am one of the most powerful people around. Major corporations are more about themselves instead of putting that money back into the economy and helping everyone else prosper. Some of you may say that this statement is one that may come across slightly socialistic BUT it is quite the opposite. I believe that making money is the cornerstone of today's society but once we have people in our own country who have to decide between meals for their children or transpiration to and from work too make money to support their kids, where others throw away millions on silly things such as multiple cars and boats simply because they can; that is where I see a problem.
