There is nothing wrong with capitalism as long as there are laws to protect labor.

There is nothing wrong with socialism as long as there are laws to protect capital.

The problem was well stated by a religious broadcaster I heard once - "When the laws can be used to plunder, the plunderers will make the laws."

Socialism does a FAR better job of seeing that the basic needs of everyone are met based upon the fact that they are human beings. Everyone born is entitled to see that the resources of their community are used to provide housing, food and medical care.

Societies which don't do this, which value the means of exchange more than souls can't be called very "advanced".
