You don't have to become a souless, greedy zombie. You can start your own business selling bird-houses. Sell your paintings. Be a rockstar. An astounding novelist.

When one thinks of capitalism they think of big greedy corporations, but that's only part of the picture. It's an ideology that says I'm going to follow my heart and my dreams as far as they'll take me. Some quantify that drive in dollars, others in how good it feels to create something and make profit off of what you've given to the world.
