Thus far comments are just as I expected.
The definition of the so-called Capitalistic system we live under is far more complex than the outdated definition we've accepted as the truth - and there's a reason for that.
In our system corporations exploit labor, our government, the working class, and the buying public thru lobbying, price fixing, price gouging, unfair wages, overblown tariffs (for smaller businesses), illegal outsourcing, and "conflict of interest" contract granting (think Haliburton). This forum/discussion couldn't handle the truth, no more than super small pricks could handle a big, fat, wet one.
Imagine what corporate controlled bureaucratic pimps/providers would do if pussy was essential to life like food, water, oil, medicine, and health-care - under true American Capitalism. There would be plenty of very wealthy pimps/providers thriving in that dick-guided economy.
Know many millionaire pimps/providers in this so-called Capitalist economy?
Don't let the pro-Capitalistic hobbyists fool you. Providers and our current system of Capitalism go together like premium unleaded and SUV's, and and truth is - we're all being pimped, but it's not by who you think. The good 'ol gubment would do good to legalize this hobby - because I'm sure many provider's would tell you - it's still a fuckin' pain in the rear to try to get rich off our cheap asses.
The primary reason some us are on this sight is to escape from the reality of being bent over by a government that's allowing corporate fat cats to screw us at will . . . or maybe it's just to try to mimic the same fuck we're receiving, but on a much smaller scale. The hobby as a true free market? Maybe. The hobby as Capitalism - American style? I don't think any of us could survive it.
And BTW - Capitalism as a free enterprise market (as defined in the OP's definition) would be just fine and dandy. Unfortunately it's not the system we really live under . . . at least not anymore.

Actually, yes, there are greedy sumbitches who try to screw over the people as much as they can. The reason that this is ok, is that you and I are free to BECOME one of them dirty sumbitches if we can figure out something that the people want or need. We are also FREE to avoid anyone's business we consider to be an overly greed sumbitch and if enough of us do that, that greedy sumbitch becomes one of us poo-ass comsumers again. Unions cry about losing their jobs, well when you are OBSOLETE you need to lose your job, pick yer sorry arse up and get a new job or start a business. Would you prefer we still subsidize ice truck workers, milkmen, colliers, farriers and blacksmiths?
Our government is here to deal with other countries, coin money, deliver mail, promote science (education), and keep us safe from foreign powers. That is all, not my opinion, it is the law.

Everything else that is spent by Congress is a violation of the laws of our land.
