Not really since there has never been a truly free market nor has there ever been unregulated capitalism.Here's another.Because I didn't make the ridiculous claim. You did. And your standard, stupid "list of links" in no way supports your claim. It just highlights the obvious fact that there is fraud. Duh.
Duh.

How many additional examples of corruption do you require before noticing a pattern?
How about something statistically significant? Fraud is relatively rare in capitalism - that's why it makes headlines when it happens. You claim that capitalism depends on fraud - which idiotic. Fraud undermines capitalism.
In ideal capitalism, fraud would be rare. However, we're not an ideal capitalistic system by a long shot.
Most people think that 'Capitalism' means 'Opportunism'. Anything goes if you can get away with it.
The 'free-market' is a 'free-for-all-market'. May the best thief win!!!!
That's the reality.
