In defense of anagorism 
Hi!
My answer for “other” might not have been as clear as it could’ve been, since your poll has a character limit.
Capitalism is a lot of things, but one of the things it does that bothers me the most is it turns moral and ethical questions into economic ones. It puts a dollar value on everything, including human and animal life, and the health and functioning of ecosystems, and thus makes it possible for corporations and governments to justify destroying those things if the price is right.
(Derrick Jensen, a thinker I really like, says something about capitalism being a way of changing a living planet into dead commodities).
And few people tell them they’ve done something wrong; people seem to think that capitalism is natural and that there is no other way to do things.
Nice poll.
It seems “view results” does not reveal the fill-in answers provided for “other,” which are made available to me. Here are the ones received so far:
an economic system in which all members seek accumulation of monetary capital.
statist bullshit
system where profit is the only goal
wealth extraction
The wage system
wage labor
something that reduces living people, animals and ecosystems to a dollar amount
how Marx defined it over a century ago
An unfree market in which state guarantees profit
fake
