Capitalism isn't a philosophy which means that

we are left to our own devices to survive

and that we should "make our own beds and lie in it"

if you screw up

if you get lost

if you lose all you have

if you are injured and can't work

that… that is your tough luck

so deal with it

Capitalism is about taking a chance on people

taking a chance on a good idea

matching talent with investors

and otherwise picking each other up when we fall

if we are to live by a heartless creed

we can't also call ourselves Christians

Christians keep hoping and keep trying

We forgive and find how to rebuild together

find how we can help

be a shoulder to lean on when it is needed

If our charities hadn't been robbed by thieves

and we hadn't been betrayed by con artists

our work as Christians would be well done

even finished

We would have dug water wells in Africa

We would have build prototypes of villages

We would have helped them achieve literacy

We would have protected the vulnerable

from the savage

Time maybe to redefine what "capitalism" really SHOULD BE
