I'm not defending capitalism.
I'm identifying the proximate threat and that threat is founded on bad definitions and misunderstanding.
A healthy capitalist system and should accommodate regulations for food and worker safety from the government under the banner of "for the general welfare" of the people.
Neoliberalism rejects all of that.
This doesn't mean capitalism is good. It means that neoliberal capitalism is a specific strain with specific characteristics not necessary to capitalism.
