New Eden is a hypercapitalistic dystopia. What do you expect? 
What's the difference between an immobile Minmatar ship and a pile of garbage?

Actually, that's CCP's opinion. I'm just repeating it because I agree with it.

You make that sound like a bad thing.
Divu Aakmin wrote:This isnt capitalism either. There is no open market.
1. I specifically recall saying New Eden, not Dust 514.
2. Just because we don't have market control doesn't mean that it isn't capitalism.
3. We sell our services privately, and we're employed by private entities. If that isn't capitalistic, what is?

1. Planetary Conquest. It counts.
2. We can leave if we want to.
3. If we could charge what we wanted to for NPC contracts, it would definitely get exploited. Fact.

That's right. Looks like you've found the real problem after all.
There's no PvE!
I've been saying this for months. Dust 514 needs PvE or new players won't be able to get adjusted.

Divu Aakmin wrote:Pure capitalism? No.. not even close. No diversified market, supply vs. demand, natural resources.... there is very little economic principal in this game at all.
It's true that there's almost no economy in Dust 514, the economy that IS there is totally capitalistic.
Thus, it is purely capitalistic, because there are no opposing economic systems in it.

No, an economic system =/= an economy.
