          Okay, allow me to copy/paste the relevant section, the first sentence.

          Capitalism is an economic system based on the private ownership of the means of production and their operation for profit.

          Meaning individuals (aka private interests) own and control the means of production with the goal of generating profit, rather than they be publicly controlled, which is to say controlled by the government.
