The thing people need to understand is this...
There is NO overlap. It may look like there is an overlap but there isn't.
Just because an asshat says he is being a capitalist, that doesn't make him part of the blue circle. He is still in the red circle and that red circle presently supersedes the blue one, it never merges with it. That's why we have the BP oil spill, Banking sector meltdowns, etc etc etc...
When capitalists reject the asshats who are ruining our economy and our ecology, then the blue circle will once again supersede the red one as it should. The result will be a much stronger and broader economy less susceptible to crashes and catastrophes.
There will never be an overlap of those two circles... one will always supersede the other. Asshats do their best to claim they are capitalists, and all too often capitalists defend asshats as if they have something in common... even when history proves they do not. The BP spill is not a problem of capitalism, it was a bunch of asshats pretending to be capitalists while raping our planet. They put millions of animals and people dependent on the Gulf at risk. Asshats should be JAILED for it, and real capitalists ought to be aware of that.
