There was a time when your edits would have bothered me, because what I
thought of as "capitalism" was just people freely exchanging with one
another. But that was just a libertarian attempt to coopt a term that was
originally meant pejoratively. I do believe in free exchange (though "free"
is obviously open to interpretation) and some form of private property
(again, open to interpretation). What I don't believe in is economies
enslaved to the state for the purpose of powering the war machine.
