Capitalists say the free market is king then they go and make laws to stifle and restrict it so they can make monopolies and gouge everyone out of their hard-earned income.
Capitalism is an egotistic not an idealistic movement. Capitalists don’t become capitalists because they think it benefits everyone, but because they think it benefits them. That’s why someone like Elon Musk is only against government subsidies if he’s not the recipient.
Buy everything up so your choice doesnt really latter because the money ends up in theirs either way.
And put hurdles in the way so no one could try to get any funny ideas and make their own thing
Other way around. They’re capitalists but don’t support the free market. So they want the factory to be privately owned and run for profit, but they still want the government to interfere with patent-infringing sales.
And I’d argue that capitalism is an inherently bad idea, even in theory. Nobody deserves free rent just for owning something, like land or natural resources. Property manager is a job, landlord is not.
So they want the factory to be privately owned and run for profit, but they still want the government to interfere
We should take a step back and recognize that they want the government to interfere by recognizing and enforcing their ownership of the factory in the first place.

They are not Capitalists. In fact capitalism is a great idea, it just we don’t have it.
Maybe it’s Crony capitalism instead?

Properly regulated capitalism isn’t strictly horrible. The biggest issue we have is that first bit, unfortunately.

Ohhh, is that that other thing the US doesn’t do? 😂
