Where, precisely, do you find crony corporatism in scripture? If Joseph was blessed was he not blessed with affluence? You have admitted as much. Carpenters were among the highest social caste in the ancient world. They provided virtually all of the acoutrements of comfortable living.

The Roman Empire is highly exemplary of corporatism, not just of territory mind you.

I never said that Joseph was not wealthy nor ever inferred Jesus to be a beggar. He was not of the Judeo-Roman elite, however, like the apostle Paul was.
