No, you didn't read the fine print. https:/www.investopedia.com/ask/answers/042215/what-difference-between-capitali st-system-and-free-market-system.asp Gives a pretty good run down. The US is a pretty good example of a primarily capitalist economy, the rich are getting richer while the poor and downtrodden become homeless.
