The only thing that capitalism implies is the existence of a class that does not work, but collects profits from the capital it owns.

That class sees competition is an unnecessary, and a profit-reducing problem[1] that can be routed around.

Instead of aspiring to be capitalistic we should aspire to have a competitive market economy.
