When people who are pro capitalism speak of capitalism, they are talking about free markets. Some people blame capitalism for problems that are really caused by corporatism, cronyism and statism. I don't know why it isn't obvious to more people that more government power increases corruption of this nature (and all kinds), not decreases it.
Pro-market is a belief in genuine free enterprise, which means companies succeed or fail solely on the basis of whether they produce goods and services that consumers like. Pro-business, by contrast, is a concept that opens the door to inefficient and corrupt cronyism, such as bailouts and subsidies. It basically means that big business and big government get in bed together. And that’s going to mean bad news for taxpayers and consumers.
