It attempts (and fails) to use Christianity to justify an economic system that is incompatible with upholding the dignity of the human person. The same can be said for Christians who try to use the faith to justify libertarianism.

I see. The more I read and learn of capitalism, the more I realise that its problems ultimately stems from the consumers, and their ideologies and morals, as well as the lack of consumer education in the world. Capitalism is not, in itself, inherently evil.

I like the notion of capitalism consisting of free will, because it makes sense that that particular crux would end up resulting in the corruption we see with a lot of these systems. Doesn't help that we are also disposed towards evil as well.
