What's the ethical basis behind people's apologies for Capitalism or critiques of it?
Individualism? Opposition to poverty, exploitation?
I guess if its all ideological there might be no coherent ethical justification behind some of the positions people hold.
Is there a coherent ethical defence that can be given by apologists for Capitalism?

Should equality mean that there's a lower and upper limit to the amount of wealth an individual can own?
This is sort of a spin off I guess from the mention of exploitation in the definition of capitalism thread.
I've kept this in thought as the question seems to be more philosophical than political.
