Do you have a time period or place where “true” capitalism has taken place?

No, it’s just a spectrum. I think the times and places with the freest markets have generated the most wealth for the most people. Any other system besides a completely free market is coercive by definition. What gives any government the legitimacy to decide which goods or services should be legal? As a person who’s entire life has occurred during the drug prohibition era started by Nixon, the idea that the state should be able to regulate any market has been delegitimized to me from a very young age.
