"capitalism tolerates some limited and deeply constrained economic exchange as long as it does not threaten the privilege and power of private property owners"
The casinos of Las Vegas wouldn't survive either if some people weren't allowed to win.
The possibility *has* to exist, otherwise we'd revolt immediately.
But it *cannot* exist for everyone - the scales must be tipped in favour of the people who own the casino.
