Community of goods is just great as a “voluntary” system.

Operative word: voluntary.

Voluntary association and community of goods is the way that religious orders have operated since the time of the desert fathers in the 3rd century AD (long before the Edict of Milan). (And, as you allude, how the early Jerusalem Christians acted in Acts 4)
