Capitalism has evolved into a model often referred to as "mixed economy," where the principles of free market coexist with government intervention to address social inequalities and regulate markets. This evolution includes the introduction of welfare programs, environmental regulations, and corporate oversight aimed at mitigating the excesses of pure capitalism. Additionally, the rise of corporate social responsibility and stakeholder capitalism reflects a shift towards prioritizing social and environmental considerations alongside profit. Ultimately, this transformation seeks to balance economic growth with broader societal needs.

Secondly, you likely have capitalism because, relative to older forms of social organisation, capitalism has been far more effective and better for not only individuals but society as a whole.

pure capitalism
Free-market capitalism is based on free markets, private ownership of the means of production, and limited regulations and some government provided goods and services. Mixed capitalism has more heavily regulated markets, mainly private ownership of the means of production but also features a greater role for state-owned enterprises, and usually has economic intervention in markets to correct market failures. Both are similar in that they are both based on the process of capital accumulation, both systems attempt to maximize private profits, and both are mainly privately-owned.

Pure capitalism does not exist, but if it did supply and demand would mainly control it. In most forms of capitalism in the world governments control it in some ways. Companies decide that products to produce and consumers decide which of those products to buy.
