    Capitalists advocate against Government intervention in the markets. To a capitalist the only laws that should exist are those that protect people, property, and assets allowing for free and open trade amongst individuals and corporations.

      AHAHAHHA, why the fuck would a capitalist not lobby the government to restrict a regulate the market in ways that are favorable to them, and detrimental to their competition? It’s literally just another leaver to pull to make more money. They don’t give a fuck about the philosophy of it. The only thing that matters to a capitalist is making more money, by any means necessary. Deluding yourself of anything else is insanity.
