Question: What is the greatest aspect of Capitalism?
Answer: Well, politically the greatest aspect is its protection of individual rights. The justification of government in a capitalist economy is; it protects an individual's freedom to live their lives how they want, do business how they want, keep the fruits of their labor, and consume them as they judge.
If we zoom out more broadly, beyond the role of government to capitalist society, I'd say the greatest aspect is not just the freedom that people enjoy, but the fact that capitalist societies unleash incredible productive power and creative energy enabling their participants to live in prosperity, beyond much of human imagination through history.
As well as fostering a social ethic, I would say, of peaceful interaction, voluntary trade, and a kind of tolerance; if we can't make a deal we're just going to go our separate ways.
