It really comes down to the people running the system.

That's why having a moral code is so important.

None.
It's all about the structure of society.
The existence of government is the failure of society to function.

classical liberalism (often called conservative or libertarian in America), not progressive fake 'liberalism'! The difference is individualism vs collectivism/statism. Night and Day.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classical_liberalism

Proof? Look at what we use everyday and our standard vs the living conditions and quality of life for humans before that. It speaks for itself. Constitution is to protect individual rights from a dictator, the majority, a king, or anyone else. Tthere is no smaller minority than the individual. Those who deny individual rights cannot be defenders of minorities.

Topic:
Material standard of living

Reason:
Freedom to trade (capitalism) allowed individuals the freedom to trade ideas, products, services, labor etc without coercion or force (via govt). It is done through mutual exchange to mutual gain (otherwise the transaction would not have taken place).

As Milton Friedman said “The great virtue of a free market system is that it does not care what color people are; it does not care what their religion is; it only cares whether they can produce something you want to buy. It is the most effective system we have discovered to enable people who hate one another to deal with one another and help one another. “

The freedom to trade can make enemies into people who will tolerate eachother because of mutually beneficial trade. It is the promoter of peace and individual rights.

It also gives you and me democratic freedom to vote in the marketplace everyday:

"The real bosses in the capitalist system of market economy are the consumers. They by their buying and by their abstention from buying decide who should own the capital and run the plants. They determine what should be produced and in what quantity and quality. Their attitudes result either in profit or in loss for the enterpriser. They make poor men rich and rich men poor. They are no easy bosses." Ludwig von Mises

Competition prevents corruption, squander, monopolies (like government or government allowed privileges to private business), and people only produce what we want for the best price.

Evidence:
Name anything you use or look at and think about how it came about. It is the result of peaceful trade between two to many parties before the end user acquires it.

"How you make it in this world, for the most part, depends more on what you do as opposed to whether people like or dislike you. In order to produce a successful life, one must find ways to please his fellow man. That is, find out what goods and services his fellow man values, and is willing to pay for, and then acquire the necessary skills and education to provide it." - Dr. Walter E. Williams


Standards continue to rise: (the numbers speak for themselves)

Upwardly mobile America:

"The Census Bureau family income data indicate that in 1967 one in 20 families had an income of $100,000 or more (in today’s dollars). In 2005 one in six families did. There are three times as many families earning more than $75,000 a year today than there were in 1967."

"The Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas looked at the same income mobility data over the time period 1975 to 1991. It found that 95 percent of poor households in 1975 were not poor by 1991. Three out of four of the “near poor” (the bottom 20 to 40 percent in family income) climbed into the middle class or higher over this period."

Even with a large income gap, the poor in America have a higher standard of living than any country with a more egalitarian gap. If income equality was good, then we would assume North Korea, Venezuela, and others would be better off, but they are not.

Human behavior in essence goes something like this:

"You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it." -Adrian Rogers
