Capitalism doesn't mean everyone has to be greedy. Its allowing people freedom in the economic aspects of their lives, and supporting private ownership of the means of production over state ownership. You can be generous and encourage others to be generous in a capitalist system.

Example: It is good to be charitable, is a moral absolute.
"Greed is good." Remember that? "Wall Street"?


Wasn't it the point of that movie, to show how greed is not good even though the main characters of the movie had been successfully promoting it as a good?
