1. Love God
2. Love your neighbor as yourself.

Those who make it a priority to follow this golden rule of Christ will often find the tenants of capitalism an obstacle.

The Pope tried to get us all to "set our hearts on things above, not on things of earth." How can one do this and still champion capitalism at all costs.

Capitalism at all costs, no. However, captialism, because of its emphasis on personal choice, still provides the best opportunity to "choose wisely".
