Capitalism just means you need to pay your own bills to keep your doors open and you have to provide something that people value more than the money they are willing to pay for it.
Capitalism has provided a wide group of people a better standard of living than 99.9% of humans that came before it. Even countries with a bit more socialist flavor benefit from the advances in health care, biotech, technology etc that originates in countries where turning a profit is one of the primary motivation for operating a business.
