Crapitalism

Capitalism
n. An economic system in which the means of production and distribution are privately or corporately owned and development is proportionate to the accumulation and reinvestment of profits gained in a free market. [American Heritage Dictionary]

Crapitalism
n. An economic system in which most people would rather stuff their cash under a mattress than lend it to anyone else; the means of production and distribution are either explicitly nationalized or significantly subsidized by the government; deflation marches on despite last-ditch efforts by central banks around the world to slap the markets back into shape; and any chump with a computer feels free to rant about the economy to no one in particular. [The Have-Not Dictionary]
