Mother Teresa never criticized the free-market system....

No offense to the author, but that's a totally ridiculous comment to make. Mother Teresa never sought to bring about social, political, or economic change. She only sought to open missions and hospices to tend to the sick and dying.

Your comment and his are the same. You are both saying Mother Teresa didn't care about money. He is merely pointing out that someone who truly doesn't care about money walks the walk and doesn't necessarily talk the talk. He is saying, in essence, that Mother Teresa never said bad things about capitalism but just the same refrained from seeking wealth, unlike George Soros and Fat Man Moore who bad mouth capitalism constantly but grab as many bucks as they can.
