Explanation:

Capitalism is an economic system in which wealth and means of production are privately owned. In a capitalist system, individuals, either alone or with others, own, operate and trade real estate, labor and capital. Investment, distribution, revenue, production, pricing and supply of goods and services are determined by independent voluntary private decisions in a market economy. One characteristic of capitalism is that each individual owns his or her own working capacity and can therefore sell it to employers. In this context, "privately owned" would mean something that is not owned or controlled by the state and run for profit.
