    Luke 12:33:

    Sell your possessions and give to the poor. Provide purses for yourselves that will not wear out, a treasure in heaven that will never fail, where no thief comes near and no moth destroys.

    So, was Jesus a communist ? Likelly no. Neither he was a capitalist. Tryin to use scripture to foster your own personal ideas is a ridiculous attempt to validate a flawed idea by calling to a higher power. And yes, both extreme extreme capitalism and extreme communism deeply flawed in equal measures.

    The bible says more about God being the friend of the poor, and judging based on how you treat the poor.

    If you don't want to read the link here's a sample:

    NLT “Never take advantage of poor and destitute laborers, whether they are fellow Israelites or foreigners living in your towns.
