I just saw the movie Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room last night, and it made me think of this thread a lot

Edit: What do you know, the whole thing happens to be on youtube.

I make money from other people's work - I maintain and fix their networks and hardware and develop applications they use, but my pay comes from the profit they generate. What does that make me then?
Your definition is flawed. Anyone who makes money is a capitalist (although I would also add that someone who does so while espousing the virtues of communism is also a hypocrite).
