"But most agree on this: Capitalism works, but it is insufficiently moral."

NONSENSE.

But even if so capitalism is certainly more moral than big government socialism.

Taking from those who produce at the point of a gun to give to the nonproductive is patently immoral.

I'll argue that the fact that it works is evidence of it's morality.

Ultimately it tends to foster progress and general well being, where socialism tends to foster apathy, stagnation and decay. I'd say there's some moral metrics involved in that comparison.

Freemarket capitalism is not possible without a Judeao-Christian moral base. The assumptions of Capitalist industry and trading are based on Mosaic expectations and trust. Atheists and Hindus can do it, too, but only because the edifice is already built.
