I like to think of capitalism we have today like a football game where you can deflate the ball, punch the opponent, have 20 men on the field, etc. with a ref that turns a blind eye.

It's odd that we as a society get so riled up over the smallest allegation of cheating in a sports game or get upset when a ref does not see the smallest thing that should be flagged, thus potentially changing the outcome of the game, but we live in a society where cheating, gaming, deflating, etc. happens all day every day and we don't bat an eye.
