I understand what you are trying to compare here....but the question was whether or not one supports capitalism without ANY controls?

And I understand the point you're trying to get across, in what he said. But the words "vigilance", "states charged with", and "control" imply forced charity for the purpose of eliminating or minimizing poor people. Ridding the world of poor people,(although Jesus said we'd always have them) is perhaps the mandate of religious folks, organizations and perhaps society in general. The government should never have the slightest role in it.

Whether or not there are any controls on capitalism, gets addressed by our representatives that we send to Washington.

This topic should never have passed the Pope's lips, and for MANY reasons. It makes him look like a politician. Maybe he's planning on running for the New World Order president, when the Anti-Christ takes over.
