The goal of capitalism is to make a profit. It's also about competition since your competitors will cause you to make less profit. So if your competitors start using slave labour then you oughta use slave labour as well  if you want to stay competitive. Otherwise you will be failing at capitalism since you will make less profit. The free market allows private businesses to offer lower prices due to the slave labour without government intervention. Capitalism is a game and the goal of the game is to make a profit. The government is the referee and they won't do much intervening or regulating of the competition. With little regulation and the pressure to make a profit, what did you think would happen? Did Jeff Bezos exploit capitalism? Did he find some bug in capitalism that allowed him to speedrun to having a billion dollars? That ain't no bug. It's a feature. He did exactly what you're supposed to do as a capitalist: Make a profit. He won at capitalism. Jeff Bezos is capitalism's endgame.

Free trade allowed for the trade of slaves. Lots of them too.
