I was going to add that gravity cannot break, either, but you hit that point.
Capitalism cannot break just like the laws of physics cannot be broken (in real life).

Capitalism is a description of the behavior of private property owners operating in free markets. You can break it by either destroying private property or free markets.

Granted, it is impossible to completely break or destroy Capitalism because the black market which will thrive under those conditions will still be Capitalist in nature.

Good book, a bit to slog through but very useful.
OTOH - Marxist-Leninist Socialism can and does break, over and over again, because it's a deeply flawed fabrication of tissue-thin conceits manufactured out of popsicle-sticks by infantile man-creatures.

Let's see if I got this right... Government interference with the economy and increased taxes and protectionism is capitalism? I must have had my definitions mixed up.
