Capit alism is an econ omic system, while demo cracy is a politi cal ideology. The only thing that threatens those profits you mention, is either the government or soci alis m.

And what if I told you that whatever you just said, has nothing to do with free market capitalism.

@TheAmericanAmerican : The point was, that your OP makes no sense, since there is no correlation between capit alism and demo cracy.

@TheAmericanAmerican "Read my OP again and remember the fact that we live on a planet that is dom nated by capita lism, NOT democ racy." We live on a planed that is dom inated by various Govern ments who interfere with the mar kets; some more, some less. We don't even have proper capi talism i.e. Lais sez-fa ire.

@TheAmericanAmerican "You think govern ments are ABO VE the capit alists! " Depends where you live. Would prefer to not have governm ents at all.

@TheAmericanAmerican "Reagan deregulated the government 4 decades ago, leading to the capitalists shipping jobs overseas so they could cut costs on labor" I'm not American, but I can certainly say that it's the complete opposite. Shipping jobs overseas happens when the government is getting too much involved and making it more difficult for businesses to do their thing. Has also happened here in Scandinavia and will keep happening until people realize that we need a smaller government, not bigger.
