From my perspective capitalism and free market are not the same.

Capitalism describes the way how we increase our productivity by accumulating more capital and the allocation of resources.

A free market, on the other hand, refers to the unregulated interaction of buyers and sellers where transactions occur without government intervention, price controls, or monopolies.

The combination of these factors, bolstered by hard money, supercharges societal growth.

In contrast, the use of fiat currency and interventionism can disrupt economic dynamics, leading to diminished productivity gains and, in extreme cases, wealth erosion.
