So the current global market, as counted by GDP isn’t capitalism?

an economic and political system in which a country’s trade and industry are controlled by private owners for profit.

Oh, wait, you’re right. China’s socialist, so not the whole international system. Any given imperialist country still relies on growth to keep capitalism alive, though.
