"Since “Capitalism” is a marxist term, I prefer the designation “Free Enterprise.”

I agree and try to stress that in conversations. The fact of the matter is that in its purest form, "capitalism," isn't really even an, "-ism."

The unfettered exchange of goods and services, supply reconciling with demand, innovation sparking new demand, individuals with the freedom (and responsibility) to balance their consumption with their production, etc. is no more directed or systemized than water seeking its own level.

Amen!

And as George Orwell demonstrated in “1984”, he who controls the language controls the culture. (I don’t have the exact quote, but you know what I mean.)
