In the last Republican primaries in the USA, that is what the difference was between a Mitt Romney Republican and a Ron Paul Republican. A Mitt Romney Republican believes in corporate welfare and government regulation to restrict the flow of capital in the market and to prevent entry into the market by possible competitors, while a Ron Paul Republican believes that government has no place in the market whatsoever -- that is what makes it a free market.
a free market is a brutish an inhuman thing. Capitalism inevitably leads to Imperialism. Free markets need to expand, need to exploit, need to gain more profit. A Ron Paul republican would cut education, healthcare, and housing subsidies. This would crush the poor that can barely earn a living. A Mitt Romney republican would do the same thing, but add the money to the military and super wealthy. Either option is not acceptable as it sends the most vulnerable class of citizens, the working poor, into absolute oblivion. Compassion should outweigh greed.
If companies can expand people won't need welfare because they can get jobs

Imperialism means when a group of elites control the market......"
Not really. Imperialism is generally understood to be the creation of an empire. It is the expansion of political and military power to other land masses. Hence we speak of the British Empire and British Imperialism, Roman Imperialism, French, Dutch, German etc.
Capitalism is an economic system which can exist with or without imperialism. Understood loosely, it is based on private ownership of the means of production, and the private production and sale of good/services for profit.
You may be aware that some pretty basic ideas about capitalism such as "laissez faire", free markets, free trade and "the hidden hand", were held as articles of faith by liberal British citizens who were also the greatest jingo imperialists of their day. But then so were the "conservatives".
Capitalism is not opposed to the existence of taxation, government revenue, market regulation or government social programs. Some capitalists are. At least until their son, or daughter or firm or industry is affected. At that point, to quote a former Reserve chairmen, the find "an error in my previous analyisis".
,while in capitalism everyone has a business right.
Well in british imperialism the monarchs did control the right of Americans for business
