Is imperialism and slavery considered to be relate with capitalism? I remember hearing 2 people arguing about it. If one is purely capitalistic, the number one priority should be profit, with all else considered secondary.

Well was actually quite an efficient economic system, the triangular trade. Ships loading with manufactured goods from Europe head south and trade those for slaves which are then taken to the U.S.A. and traded for consumer goods and raw materials (spices, sugar, cotton) and then shipped to Europe again.

So doesn't that mean the extreme right also led to the exploitation, suffering, and death to a mass scale? Is child labor and an absolute lack of worker's rights also considered "extreme capitalism"? Since those people only considered profits, and the reforms put ethics and human rights as the piority instead of profit?
