I disagree, at least in part.
Jesus certainly seemed to favor the man who would not bury his money in the ground, but instead used it to help his neighbors. I think nearly every capitalist does the country more good than ANY Communist!
Joseph proved that Tax Cuts make a country wealthy, during the Seven Fat Years.
There are many places where the Bible seems to show favoritism to the honest capitalist.

Every example you can find of “capitalism” in the Scriptures actually supports . . . capitalism.
Your citations do support a free enterprise system, which is certainly the correct one.
But God does not promise His protection to the system for the system itself. If capitalism is the god of a man to the exclusion to the True and Living God, and he ignores the other precepts of morality and spirituality found in the same Scriptures, He has the prerogative to remove His hand and allow its failure.
Jesus didn’t fail in any of the words of God, and Joseph loved the God of the Scriptures with all of his heart, and ran from the immorality of Potifer’s wife.
God would have no obligation to protect or use Joseph if Joseph had the same attitude toward perversion ad Mr. Cheney, regardless of Joseph’s “capitalism.”
My argument is not against Free Enterprise. My argument is for the Nation not to countence perverts who offend God, so that we will not forfeit (as a nation) the blessings upon our free enterprise, which I state in my article to be a gift from God.
