As a believer in capitalism can you really call it capitalism with the phrase "Too big to fail"?

Well the term "capitalism" is a Marxist slur on what people who really like the system call "the Free Market" or "Free Enterprise". In the free market there is no "to big to fail"; the market has decided that you suck and that it won't be giving you money, you're out of the game. Simple as that.
"Too big to fail" is a socialist idea because it conceives of the market as having a purpose which will fail if certain corporations fail whereas actual free market loving people think that a big corporation falling is a good thing. It's like a really tall tree in a jungle falling: more light is let in and other plants get a chance.Like (2)

Decision making and self sufficiency is too much for some people to handle... For everyone else there's North Korea.
