The best attitude towards capitalism in theory or capitalism in practice?

This is extremely difficult. I cannot quite put it together. Clearly, the two share a lot of common ground. The two cannot be clearly separated. I can think of the "in theory" part and I can think about the "in practice" part, but I cannot do so without thinking. If it is not thinking then there is nothing at all. But it cannot be only thinking because it has to be practical. It really makes one respect the diversity of nature, how there is not just one thing everybody should believe. You are really getting the hang of it, Cleary!

so in looking this over I reiterate: there are these two separate aspects. We must consider both. The attitude towards theory, the attitude towards practice.
