Economics 1

I would agree with Mr. Moore that Jesus did not intend for the rich man to keep everything for himself. However, I would disagree that socialism is what Jesus had in mind.  In the bible Jesus tells us that if we are blessed with wealth we are to use that to bless other people. Socialism is a way to see that this happens, but there are many flaws in this economic system. The bible also says that man is fallen and if America was socialist, men would abuse the system and there would still be corrupt men who kept most of the wealth for themselves.
