    Thank you for an accurate explanation of capitalism. If you’ll allow me to extend that explanation, capitalism is where the ownership class – who controls the capital and provides little, if any, other value – “skims” (in quotes, because we’re often not talking about just a negligent fraction) from returns that should go to the labor class for the value they add.
