Tim Cain worked on the original fallouts, fallout 1 and 2. He has not been credited in the series since. The fallout series has passed through the hands of many others, who may have included a critique of capitalism as a theme.
If you’re interested in Tim Cain’s ideas on capitalism, he was the director of the outer worlds, which is far more focused on capitalism much more directly than fallout ever was.
