No it isn't. Capitalism doesn't even really have a goal because, unlike Socialism which was consciously invented as an ideology, Capitalism arose by accident and is subscribed to be wildly disparate people with wildly incompatible beliefs. But most of those people don't want to "own the world and space as a monopoly and ravage the earth to the point of no vegetation" because that's insane.

You can make a very good argument that it was Adam Smith, with Wealth of Nations.

It was influential, but capitalism had essentially already come about in a limited form.
