See this is precisely where I disagree. Capitalistic societies must necessarily have small lean governments to limit the power that can be purchased. A powerful government in a capitalistic society is a Shinkansen to oppression and stagnation.

I'm not so sure you do. Unfettered capitalism is governed by black hole physics: money will pool in the hands of those who have. The same amounts of power will be purchased, just not purchased through a government who might possibly roll some prosperity down hill.
What you seem to really want is a world run by totalitarian factions (corporations). Very similar to what we have now sans humanitarian organizations; they couldn't exist in the world of red and black.
