Answer:

The Gospel of Wealth supported rich industrialists by saying that their wealth eventually benefited the poor. Social Darwinism defends capitalism by saying that their wealth is earned through the natural order of nature. Both supported capitalism, but had different ways of expressing and defending their views.
