I'd think he's 100% less likely to draw heat on a bowling opponent over a scoring dispute.

Less likely to do this, too:

At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

The difference is, in corporatism, they get the support of (corrupt) governments, and often influence government policy. Under capitalism, under a free market, that cannot happen (else the free market ceases to be "free").

Corporatism is the reason health insurance companies charge as much as they do, and cannot operate across state lines (often), or are tied in with specific hospitals. In capitalism, those restrictions would not apply.

That's the problem with True Capitalism -- no one has ever seen it exist.

Possibly due to people with money attempting to, in their own personal interests, change the economic system from the "Free market" to more of a "market that favors them".

I don't know, but like True Communism, True Capitalism has yet to be sighted in this world.
