As soon as people vote for other than freedom, such as capitalists voting to stop other people doing things, such as competing with them, then they are no longer capitalists, but just another variety of robber. I'm a capitalist and proud of it. It's quite an achievement to become a capitalist and stay it. Inherited capitalists are not so great, but they usually only last 2 or 3 generations then they have wasted the originator's hard-earned rewards. Lots of capitalists know that their creations will be smashed on the first reef the new captains come across, so they are careful with who they hand it over to after they have died, and careful who they give it away to. $ill Gates for example recognized well over a decade ago [when I first read about him saying it], when he said that you have to be just as careful about giving it away as earning it.
