Best point is his comparision of capitalism and morality, which seems to mirror John Adams thoughts on the founding document: “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” Capitalism, when practiced in a moral and ethical environment, performs a superior social good v. socialism.

I would add that Scalia’s thoughts, as well as Adam's mirror that of God. Jesus said...

Mat 26:11 For you always have the poor with you,...

...was a reminder of what is written in the Pentateuch, that God set aside instructions on how we, as individuals are to take care of the poor. It was the priests who were given the task to take care of the widows & orphans, the needy were to be taken care of by the individuals who best could take care of them on a personal level, thus teaching that it is always better to give than to receive, it is always better to put another before ourselves.
