Real Capitalists

See OpenCapitalists.

Maybe "real" isn't the best word, since such have never actually existed, and probably never will.

Nonsense, there are plenty of OpenCapitalists at swap meets, garage sales, mutual credit societies, and generally underfoot everywhere. They may not have all the tools they need, but they're common as men.

You wouldn't be confusing capitalists with free marketeers, would you now? What is it about garage sales that correlates with economic growth fuelled by the investment of private capital?

In our recent history, and still today in backwaters and certain IntentionalCommunities and MutualCreditSocieties, they're the same thing. In our western HypnoCratic? world, there's lamentably little correlation.
