In defense of Capitalism...

Throw me your arguments against capitalism. Keep it on topic as well.

right to property; sure, if you make it yourself i.e. the house that you build, or the sweater that you knit... but, at the risk of sounding overly sentimental (although, why not?) how can someone "own" a piece of Earth? or river? or mountain? or wild trees? (note: wild)
Really? just because it's wild, it's first come first serve? What about the folks who were here first? Don't they, then, really "own" the land? (although they don't see it that way...)
Why is the goal non-contradictory justice? Why not everyone being content? It's easy enough to call: "Utopia" when it's the other guy's opinion, but what about your own? Aren't you a bit utopic in your idealism of capitalism?
