This is nor meant to be a personal attack or anything on our Christian Capitalism Brother's and Sisters in the Lord. It is one concern I have with what I have seen of the Biblical Capitalism movement in general. That is the lack of seeing the need for government safety nets and assistance to the needy.
If one defines Capitalism as, "an economic system characterized by private or corporate ownership of capital goods, by investments that are determined by private decision, and by prices, production, and the distribution of goods that are determined mainly by competition in a free market." Then I am as much a Biblical Capitalism proponent as any laissez-faire unfettered Libertarian or anti Government assistance proponents.
The social market economy of Christian Democracy proponents would be a form of Capitalist using this definition as well as they believe in using free enterprise, but, with a healthy dose of regulations and and social safety nets/Taxation based welfare.
Capitalism does not equal no government welfare for the needy or lack of safety nets. One can both assist those in need, but, not take control of the Market. One can provide safety nets for those in need and not support in anyway command economics. There can be both private property defended and assistance given to people that needed it.
Yet, at least some Christian Capitalists would claim any Welfare from the Government is somehow an anti market or anti Capitalism view. This is an unfortunate import from the Fring Extremism of the anti Government movement. It is not a view that is either attenible nor sustainable for an actual Countries economy. It is an import from extreme and fringe movements such as Ayn Rand's Objectivism or so-called Christian Libertarianism. As an ex and recovered Libertarian I know exactly where such arguments come from.
Capitalism is something I support if you mean that government does not dictate the average citizens use of their money which is theirs or their property. Or that governments does not own or attempt to own and control the means of production using command economics. However, for Biblical Capitalism as a movement it seems any government actions within the market or any State intervention no matter how needed or limited is off limits.
