Capitalism like Socialism is a form of economics, not government.
What you said is true, it is about the economics of a country or some other indenity.

Sometimes, I was informed by people, wars are for economical reasons, as well as for other reasons like defense.

Forien policy often deals with trade and other economic concerns.

All that can become very political and politics are what governments are made out of, more or less.

They (political office holders) often run for office talking about the budget, about how the other side spends too much and so forth.

But I will agree this time, capitalism and socialism are political and governmental concepts having to do with the economy or what to do with taxes collected by that government
, as well as from what tax payer bracket you would collect taxes from - but that they are not actually the government.

It is evident that presently the big money companies do not run the government otherwise you would not see so many lobby groups attempting to influence our leaders.

In fact - soscialism, capitalism, democary, and even the consitution, are all just 'ideas' and concepts that can be employed for governing, but the idea is not the government persay - the government is the people whom we give power to so they can run things on our behalf. The body politic

oh oh, confusion in the darnyard. Hmm?
