Even if this were true, it's the system in his spiritual kingdom in paradise! Socialism has NEVER worked in Satan's kingdom in this world!!!

The main problem here in this world is there's never been enough unselfish widespread LOVE to see it through.

Capitalism, coupled with enough conservative, constitutional conservatism along with charity (also a form of love) has done more to elevate mankind than anything else in all the world's history!!!

We can know God through his works. God created nature to work in a certain way. I take it as a clue. Many seek a nature where the lion lays down with the lamb. That’s not really how nature works. The plants, the animals, all designed to operate in a balanced ecosystem. To me that is a clue. Doesn’t natures system seem to resemble capitalism more than collectivism?

Socialism is contrary to Torah. There is a definitive private property statement in Genesis 1:28 in the verb for "have dominion" pronounced ur'du. The root is derived from a Semitic term meaning to set property lines by walking boundaries 'treading down' the grass. G_d didn't give us each infinite responsibility for the entire earth; we are to care for our own.
