People have different definitions of capitalism, and cound different side effects into that definition.
While you are correct in your claims, it does look like you are not seeing negative effects it has on society and economy.
Similar thing happens with the other side, they usually put criminal activities (like corporations poisoning people) into definition of capitalism or they directly blame it for that kind effect on humans.
I think that is just not really accepting the nature of humans.
Shit will happen in every *isam and each one will be good for something.
That doesn't mean we shouldn't challenge everything that we see as bad, and there is no need to make those classifications.
It is like politics, looks like you can not be for lower taxes and support same sex marriage at the same time, even thou there are people with those options.
