Yes capitalism did not make all scientific discoveries but it did use them to make more discoveries at a vastly faster rate.

If you ignore fact that almost all fundamental research was done or paid by goverment. Where is private CERN? Private ISS? Heck, where computers would be if not for brittish, american and soviet state research programs? Even companies like Intel were created by goverment funding.
