Capitalism isn't "implemented." It's what happens when there's no assholes around trying to implement things.

Yes. America adopted capitalism and patent ownership. Previous to this, the government basically owned your work and profit shared with you.

This is what made America great and a capitalist giant. Everyone wanted to come here because you could keep your property and intellectual rights. This made America a beacon.

To me I thought capitalism was an invention of the founding fathers and thus was secured in the constitution essentially as a form of economic freedom to go along with all the other freedoms it was trying to entail.

Because I see people with the arguments “capitalism is tyranny” etc and I’m just thinking, bitch, it was literally created for America as very specifically the freest and furthest from tyranny an economic model that could be.

No one invented capitalism. It's the default state of human activity engaged in fulfilling wants and needs.

I believe your interpretation is correct.

Define "official capitalism".

Capitalism evolves naturally when people are allowed to freely engage in commerce in a peaceful society that has enforced, common sense laws with an absence of overreaching regulation.

America flourished because the states had enough power to fragment centralized corruption until around the time of the federal reserve act, which allowed the old money banking families to control the individual states via financing through the captured federal government. It's been downhill since then.

States have to use the US Dollar and are dependent on federal tax money to survive, so they are neutered. The federal government has also taken more and more power over the years through three letter agencies that use broadly written regulation to overrule state law.

Remember. Capitalism is the absence of state enforced systems.

A man lost in the wilderness is a capitalist. He owns his means of production.

Usa is not and has not been a capitalist society just has had pockets of capitalism.

Capitalism is economically free range humans doing as they see fit. Which grants no power for predatory elites which is why they trained retards to hate capitalism.
