A pyramid scheme. Trust me on this one. That's all it really is.
The word is so naturalized that it would be impossible to give an example. But just look at the American Dream, the disparities between rich and poor, and all the third world countries. You'll then get a picture of what "Capitalism" really means, and how it's essentailly a euphemism for what could be more acurrately described as a sort of pyramid scheme.

A system based on private property except only 1% of people are able to have that private property by leeching off from the other 90% labor.
What did Capitalism achieved in Russia that 70 years of "Communism" never could?
Make "Communism" look good!

A political system whereby the educated (rich) can expoit the uneducated (poor) to satisfy their own greed and lust for power. A system where a persons role in society is determined by the class he or she is born into. THIS IS MY MAIN PROBLEM WITH CAPITALISM. It is a natural progression from a dynastical system of government i.e from monarchy to the Bushes and Murdochs. Power and influence remains in the hands of the few ruling families. Relies on the ideas of social Darwinism, whereby corperations and nations behave like animals, competing with each other for resources (sound familiar?), and the fittest (or most ruthless and inhuman). The inevitable conclusion is that billions live in poverty while the lucky few live like kings. This new form of aristocrat treats those supposedly below him in the social heirarchy with disdain. Those with principals and compassion are ridiculed and treated as pariahs. With no central control or direction this will inevitably result in the squandering of the earths natural resources and the end of civilisaiton, unless a new, more efficient, fairer system is introduced. This is not communism (State controlled capitalism), and it is not anarchy. Capitalism cannot be sustained for much longer, although it did have one positive effect on humanity, modernisation through industrialisation. But its purpose has been fulfilled, the capitalists have to step aside and give the rest of us a go.

Quite possibly the worst economic system ever developed. Essentially results in a cutthroat economy in which the poor become poorer and the rich become richer. Has likely resulted in vastly more that the 100 million deaths which communism is inaccurately attributed to having caused.
Capitalist: I've inherited all of this money, so I'll go and start a business where I rely on the labors of the minimum-wage proletariat, while I simply sit in my office all day, contributing nothing, all while being paid $5,000,000 a year! ¡Viva capitalism!

The system that challenges and drains your spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical abilities. Basically, it's the Devil of the Earth that we have to fight and consume to qualify us as imperfect beings.
They say communism is only good in theory, well so is capitalism.

The beacon of inequality and greed. Adapted to work in unison exceptionally well natural flaws in people.
An economic system in which the aspect of potential greed is both exploited and glorified to the fullest.
A system that thrives on the destruction of people.
The prepetuation of the division between various social classes.
Capitalism fluctuates constantly therefore its destruction is inevitable, at one point or another.
