Capitalism is an economic philosophy in which the production and distribution of goods, and the providing and cost of services are dictated by the free market. The state's role in the economy is not to intervene in the free market. Governments who follow this philosophy typically provide less services to their citizens than other countries. This causes the citizens to be dependent on the private sector to receive the services not provided by the state.
