"...let’s make it a pizza instead of a pie (although technically, pizza is a type of pie)...."
When it first became popular in America after World War II, it actually was called "pizza pie". But I think they stopped calling it that so it wouldn't be confused with a fruit or meat pie.
Ideally, according to its advocates (Smith, Keynes, Vebler, Weber, etc.), capitalism is supposed to ensure that individuals can operate profitable businesses that serve collective needs; whereas, according to ITS advocates (Marx, Engels, Lenin etc.), communism is supposed to be about individuals sharing the wealth of a nation on just terms. However, somewhere along the way, both of these basic definitions got subverted and perverted...
From now on, whenever Nathan and Nia start arguing over something for the seventeenth time in one day, I'll simply send them your post to read. I'm sure it'll settle any arguments efficiently and... equitably.
Absolutely, and if they ever start to argue about the various merits of democratic socialism vs capitalism and are at each others' throats, I'm confident this will pull them back from the brink.
Deep dish or Chicago style pizza is delicious and I feel like capitalism gets some credit for variety? There is a group of restaurants around here called Zachary's that make addictive deep dish pizza. Just writing this I want a pie (it's also good a day or a week later).
Pizza related, sibling related, not capitalism related, we used to go to a place called ZZAs in Oakland and for birthdays they'd light up the big sign in the back and everyone would yell. When my daughter was learning how to do #2 outside a diaper and outside the house we had a milestone at ZZAs bathroom. They lit up the lights and we all screamed.

Spot-on. These are technologies to be used, not absolute all-or-nothings as they are so often perceived.

Important question: Gino's or Giordano's?
Zachary's! I did try one of those (?) in Chicago but college pizza memories cannot be broken
There used to be an Uno's here in Richmond, but they closed down years ago. Did I miss out?
It’s only a 12 hour drive to Chicago, chop chop!
I've made that drive somewhere between six and ten times already! But Giordano's was my jam.
