Hi there. I just wanted to point out something interesting to you all based on this paragraph on the original post. Consider it food for thought.
The traders are sole traders, they are not capitalists as to the best of our knowledge they don't have employee's. Sole traders have existed across all economic systems for millennia, as have markets.
as for the rimworld colony, it operates as a collective, hence what you have is sole traders buying and selling goods to and from...
communists.
For capitalism, you need a top down anti democratic system of production that takes the wealth all produce and gives it to a few, who would pocket most of it then give a tiny dribble back to the rest who produced the wealth.
i.e. employer>employee. ;o)

Graduate from your rimworld life of living like a overdue cavemen, into the industrialised modern world of Capitalism
